Some of the traits of dyslexics are seeing, thinking, and perceiving multi-dimensionally. Traditional educational processes interfere with a multi-dimensional thought process. Eventually, this becomes a problem as dyslexics tend to find it difficult to understand language in traditional methods of learning. Multiply this problem over years, and you have a student with what "they" call a "learning disability". I believe that providing an educational process in harmony with the multi-dimensional free thinker's thought process will result in greater success for students. Dyslexics often possess higher than normal intelligence and extraordinary creative abilities, which can be compromised by a traditional educational process. In that case, dyslexic children can struggle with their stifled talents. Some outlets for this energy are positive; some are not. It's not fun playing a game you're not good at that others are. Some develop traits recognized as characteristics of ADD. Some turn to art or sports; some become teachers' pets to make up the difference. Some disturb the class; some do things you don't want to know about. I did them all.
