So, information can't be spread a quickly, or efficiently as compared to a normal person. Dyslexic individuals also have troubles with sounds, not being able to differentiate the smallest sound differences, like "ba" and "da"; these sounds are referred to as phonemes.

Through my research on dyslexia, i have found out many interesting causes and signs that I never even thought of. Children can be affected by ways of reading, writing, and even in math; there are mild and major cases. Dyslexia is a learning disorder, and it is mostly inherited by genes. For example; people who are dyslexic have weaker connections in the brain. So, information can't be spread a quickly, or efficiently as compared to a normal person. Dyslexics also have trouble sounding words out; these sounds are referred to as “phonemes.” This is probably the most common type of dyslexia. This disorder is quite common, as approximately one fifths, or twenty percent of Americans have dyslexia. You would think that since there are many kids with dyslexia, that there would be some sort of training for teachers to identify and help fix their students who have the disorder. However, this is not the case; teachers, when they go to school, are not specifically taught to deal with dyslexia. This leads parents to be angry with teachers for not noticing the child’s problems. There are many ways for teachers and parents to identify dyslexia in a kid. If the kid is a hesitant reader, has trouble sounding out words, or has trouble reading smoothly, your child most likely has dyslexia. Even though this disorder holds back many kids during school, people with dyslexia often succeed later in life. Dyslexics are creative minded, and pursue their interests far better than normal people. They are hardworking and very social. Even though dyslexics succeed in life, they would rather you not refer to hem as a dyslexic. Many feel as if dyslexia holds them back and makes them dumb, so it is smart to avoid that word. Dyslexia is a very common disorder, but you should only be concerned of dyslexia if it runs in your family. Dyslexia however won’t hold you back to strive in any career you chose.

You can see our entire video collection FREE! Go to http://dyslexia.com.au/free-dyslexia-learning/ Many people I've worked with say they can't write, and I ask them three questions. Can you write your name? If they have difficulty forming the letters, they may have dysgraphia, which can be corrected by removing the confusion when making certain movements with the pen.

This video is about dyslexia training. Teachers and parents are tested by reading comprehension and writing through the vision of a dyslexic person. They have to first read a paragraph that has mixed up letters, then the have to write about that article they just read, in two and a half minutes. The adults found thee comprehension part very difficult and felt as if the time felt to short for how arduous the task was. Now parents realise how difficult it is on a daily basis for dyslexics to read, write and listen, when it is expected in a short time.

Dyslexia Explained: What it's like Being Dyslexic

# data[].attributes.body
This video is about the struggles of being dyslexic and the problems that can happen when the kid isn't tested. Teachers and peers may not understand what it is like to have difficulties in doing simple tasks for them. It often takes dyslexics twice the amount of time to do work compared to an ordinary person.  When kids aren't tested, their confidence can be squandered. However, school is probably the worst part of a dyslexics life, because when they graduate they can do anything they want.

Things Not to Say to Someone With Dyslexia

This video is about bringing awareness to saying hurtful things about others. People with Dyslexia can't control it, it's inherited. However, this video tries encourage people to be aware of what they are saying around Dyslexics. People are harsh and mean, but just by being aware of talking about sensitive subjects makes us less likely to hurt others feelings. People with Dyslexia also don't like to be aware of their disorder. For example; dyslexics really don't like being reminded they have dyslexia or having to do special activities to keep up with kids in class.

"You need to focus"

"Why do you get longer time on tests"

"I'm a bit dyslexic too"

"You'll never succeed in your career"

People with Dyslexia think that it makes them automatically dumb. This is the opposite, it just is a small disorder that barely affects people majorly. You're not going to be dumb  because you're dyslexic, it just tricks your mind. jennifer had difficulty reading, which only made her more determined to be an actress. She didn't want to be labeled as "dumb". Overall, she succeeded even though dyslexia slowed her down.

This video is about what to do if you or your child has dyslexia. Dyslexia may come from inherited genes, or works with ADD. Teachers are not taught nor informed to talk about dyslexia in class, they have no training for it. So, when a child has dyslexia in their class, they most likely have little to no idea on how to deal with it. Common myths are that there are no tests for dyslexia, and the earliest you can found out is age 9. This is false, experts in the field have numerous amounts of tests and can determine dyslexia on the spot. Also, they can find out if a kid has dyslexia even at 5 years! Dyslexics are the most imaginative, and one o the most successful people in any field they partake in. Dyslexics will never have to be in a special education class or be labelled as having a learning discrepancy.

What I Wish Teachers Knew About Dyslexia

Dyslexia is an inherited condition that makes reading, writing, and/or spelling hard in your native language. Dyslexia affects 1/5 people. Kids with Dyslexia often think the class is breezing by with reading, but in fact the kids who have dyslexia are far behind. (This may sound biased, but it seems like some of the kids in this video are trying to take shortcuts. For ex; One of the boys wants a calculator for math exams.)
