What was your favorite subject in school?
No. I was a dyslexic student trapped in the education system, unaware of how dyslexia impacted my ability to learn to read. I didn’t receive the appropriate techniques to help me learn to read in my own way or the accommodations to demonstrate what I did know.
So, I was labeled a slow reader because of my poor reading skills, implying that I was a slow learner. Unfortunately, most of my teachers were unwilling to provide extra assistance or take the time to understand my knowledge.
In my memories of attending school, I struggled in all my subjects because learning to read properly is a crucial cornerstone in obtaining an education.
Reading is a crucial cornerstone in education and life, influencing our ability to work, cook, and simply enjoy a good novel. It’s imperative that we ensure every student has the opportunity to learn how to read.
