Dyslexia is neurobiological, which means it affects the way our brain processes information, which is just a fancy way of saying our brains are wired differently to what society considers ’normal’, and generally speaking, education systems aren’t currently structured to teach in the way our brains learn.
So remember, dyslexia does not affect intelligence and it is the education systems that just haven’t adjusted to our way of thinking.
