How I discovered that I’m mildly dyslexic and how it now benefits me
During my school years, I didn’t enjoy academic subjects. Although I understood the topics and would happily talk through ideas, concepts and problems, I was never keen to read or write about them. This was due to my slow reading and poor spelling abilities. These two attributes always led to embarrassing, repetitive errors. It was much easier and quicker for me to ask questions and talk through the concept. If there were ever the opportunity to illustrate an idea, I’d take that route over a written piece.
