Subject: Re: Depression and Dyslexia Author: Russel Van Brocklen [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 18:14:43 04/25/11 Mon In reply to: Robert Rawlings 's message, "Re: Depression and Dyslexia" on 17:52:11 04/25/11 Mon I was diagnosed with dyslexia when I was in early elementary school, and throughout my education I was told I was not college material. Well, my teachers where right, college is for general education students, dyslexic's do great in graduate school. I found that when it came time to contribute to your choose field of study, general education students generally could not come up with an original idea, no matter how hard they tried. As a dyslexic I found this relativity easy. For motivated college bound, and older dyslexic individuals, I found an academic cure for dyslexia, for reading and writing. We simple use the overactive front part of the dyslexic brain to fix the dyslexic students writing and reading issues. Now I look with sympathy for my general education peers, most I am told, by senior professors, will never come up with an interesting, original idea. For me dyslexia has made this easy.

I have been teaching physical education for 30 years. I struggled through school and received my Masters degree- all through hard work, grit and determination. One of my biggest problems is being a convincing and effective communicator. I know people think I am stupid, maybe I am. I get facts confused, can't remember events from the past, and get tongue tied when I try to talk. People do not respect what I have to say, instead they make fun of me. I found this site and wanted to explore what other dyslexic individuals were dealing with. I have not seen anyone's message about having poor memory recall. So maybe I am alone in that respect. What kind of work do you with dyslexic people? Kim [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
