If you’re dyslexic, you have a different kind of mind - probably gifted and productive, that is able to do a lot of things really well. However, your mind learns differently. You are not dumb.

Dyslexia is a learning difference -- it refers to smart children like you who have average to above-average intelligence and no limiting physical or emotional problems, yet find it hard to read, spell, and write.

Dyslexia results from differences in the structure and function of your brain.

You are creative and may have unusual talent in areas such as art, athletics, architecture, graphics, electronics, mechanics, drama, music, or engineering. Dyslexics often show special talent in areas that require visual, spatial, and motor integration.
