63 percent of the population is unable to define one of the most common learning disability. DYSLEXIA Could you define it?

Agatha Christie “I myself, was always recognized… as the “slow one” in the family… Writing and spelling were always terribly difficult for me. My letters were without originality. I was… an extraordinary bad speller and have remained so until this day.”

Albert Einstein His teachers said that he was mentally slow, unsociable, and adrift in his foolish dreams.

General George Patton He was bright and intelligent and brushing with energy. He was unable to read and write. His wife corrected his spelling, his punctuation and his grammar.

Cher “When I was in school it was really difficult. Almost everything I learned I had to learn by listening… Don’t focus on how dyslexia makes life tougher… instead the invisible voices of creativity that sing louder in your heart than those less fortunate people who have not been given our gift… Make peace with it and fly!”

Thomas Edison A teacher sent the following note home with his with a six-years- old boy: ” He is to stupid to learn.”

Would you say that these people are… DUMB? LACK OF EFFORT? LAZY? MENTALY SLOW? UNABLE? TOO STUPID TO LEARN?

Would you say that about these people…

And them…

What about him, would you call him dumb?

Dyslexia is a specific learning difficulty, witch affects a person ability to learn and process information.
