Many kudos's to Louise for fighting through her dyslexia to earn her degree, and to the dyslexia workers at the university for their help.
Hard work pays off for dyslexic Flintshire woman - Evening Leader
Dyslexia is a disability that is not understood well, and people tend to regard it as a minor thing...but it's not.
Jodie has dyslexia. Words jump around on the page for her. People don't realize the extra concentration it takes. Until we got together, I didn't really understand it. Spelling is difficult for her. I use to be a copy editor myself....I am always a instant message away to help her.
Jodie tells of the difficulty she had taken tests in high school. One day she asked the teacher to give her the test orally. She aced it! The other parents did not appreciate the accommodation, so it did not continue. But Jodie proved to the teacher...and herself...that her poor test taking had nothing to do with any lack of intelligence.
Way to go Louise!
