Great to hear Keira Knightley talking to Graham Norton about how she uses her Dyslexic Thinking skills to learn lines. She describes how she draws while listening to a recording of the script - and this helps her memorize the part she needs to learn. Dyslexic Thinkers often have strong visual memories. Our brains are wired to process and store information through images, patterns, and spatial relationships. When the words won't 'stick', the pictures will. This is a great way for many dyslexic learners to learn. Creating revision notes that are visual, picture or doodle-based and colour coded. She also told Graham about how her parents used her passion for acting as the 'carrot' to get through school - just as she told us in this great interview, too.

“The road leading to automatic word reading is not
short. It is not reached directly by having novice beginners practice reading words on flash cards.

We loved this clip from MSNBC TV journalist, Stephanie Ruhle, where she describes using her brilliant Dyslexic Thinking to simplify complex information and story tell in a way that gets to the heart of the story. Dyslexics are brilliant at simplifying. Although we struggle to read large amounts of information, we are masters at picking out the key points and communicating them to those around us. This makes us brilliant journalists, but also great teachers, politicians and valuable members of any team.
