Thank you so much for making this video. It's really helped me understand what my son is going through.

I have a learning disability too, I don’t know what it is but my conditions are, bad grammar and spelling. Also things I say don’t make sense, such as, when I speak my words can sometimes be jumbled, so usually I have to think before I speak to make sure I say the words correctly. Also I suck at math. Also following instructions can be hard for me, I sometimes need basic understanding and need to be shown first, I won’t understand if there isn’t an example for me to follow

I’m enrolled in Smart Horizon Online High School! I struggle with math! I’m trying to get my first job! I want to go to nursing and medical school!

Have a learning disability and very high dyslexia, very high dyscalculia and mild dyspraxia and also had a very bad at my special needs high school experience with my maths teacher he thought wast doing the maths work and kicked me out of the classroom because he didn’t understand that I find maths really hard because of my cause my dyscalculia and I told my mum watt happened my mum was not happy with that so she right a latter to him explain why I find maths very difficult so once he red and realised why I couldn’t do the maths and he said I’m very sorry and he gave me a 1to 1 support until that I fished school I was very happy that he understood in the end

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and motivating others with same problem.

You don't need to bother about such stupid and mean people, you are the bravest and smartest girl who is able to deal with her own difficulties. In my opinion you are a genius. ❤❤

I have a learning disabilitie and still struggle on things that are frustrating, I had it when I was a kid

I was diagnosed with dyslexia at 19 after 3 evaluations of tests. I was told I was stupid; they wanted me left back [this was a way they were teaching me to memorize words, not sound them out]. I have been bullied, beat up, and told I could never mount to anything from high school, and I was homeschooled the last month even though I was in a private school for "kids with learning disabilities." I went to college the first time, and no professor would help, not even the disability section for students. Since 2000, I have traveled 50 miles round trip to study after class, then see my specialist [Family friend but still had to pay] for tutoring for people with dyslexia. I graduated with honors from my Community College and then went to a four-year school. At this four-year school, I was told, "They don't give breaks or extra time on a job, so you should not be here." I don't want to name the school, but it could have been a better experience. I did graduate with over a 3.5, even though I was a bit old. Finally, learn from me; don't let anyone tell you that you can't do anything cause it is possible. Love yourself and realize people project their own insecurities onto others. Please love yourself, as I am still in that process with my MI.

My dad was dyslexic back in the '50's and '60's, and they tested his IQ. He would test genius level, so they assumed that he was so stubborn that he would refuse to learn how to read. While dyslexia is pervasive, as she said, it took him until his twenties to actually enjoy reading.

Thank you for sharing! I know this is a 7 year old video, but you mention a book. Did you write your book? I'd be interested in reading it.

I THINK HAVING A LEARNING DISABILITY AND BEING IN SPECIAL EDUCATION IS REAL GRIEF BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN THRU THAT, ALSO EPILEPSY. THE GRIEF IS VERY NUMB LIKE I'M BLEEDING INTERNALLY

People who tell you that "you can't" struggle with an understanding of people. Everybody struggles with something. Well done young lady.

Thank you for your story!!! 🙏 ❤️ You are beautiful on the inside and the outside and I know by watching this video that you have impacted so many people around the world. The world needs more people like you. You deserve all the happiness in the world. God Bless You 🙌 ❤ Thank you 😊

No, this video is not for me I’m inspired, but I don’t have dyslexia, even though I do struggle with reading, and writing to the point where I’ve given up, I can barely write down. What’s on my mind too little or not at all to be honest, but I have an intellectual disability, persuasive, Developmental Disorder, I look completely normal my learning disability is more severe than my ID or PDD But looking at you, you look completely normal. I probably wouldn’t even qualify to date you. Whether you’re taking or not doesn’t matter you are way more successful enough. If you can post a video on KZbin and talk about yourself I will definitely subscribed to your channel.

Thank you for sharing your story! I am an assistant principal, and this video affirms how I need to treat all of my students!

My daughtee has a learning disability shes 17 also she feels ashamed of herself because some kids askes her why she goes to a dumb student classroom , kids are rude as hell and they hurt the other kid feelings with the words they choose to say and it realy make me angry

Thank you!

I was diagnosed with multiple learning disabilities; I struggled with every school subject. I failed many of my tests and exams. I never made it through college. I barely passed high school; my mom had to help me with projects. I did not have very many friends. I’m very insecure around everyone; especially people who I find much more attractive than me. I feel inferior to everybody. I feel lost, stupid and judged. I don’t pick up on jokes; everybody said I was a little slow. I’m very nervous around people all of the time; even my closest friends. I watch skin care and hair care and makeup videos on KZbin all the time and I still have no idea how to use many of the beauty products. I can’t remember what I see in any video I watch. I really hope I can in someway remember what you said this video. What you say to me seems very meaningful. I never feel quite right.

How to get tested for a learning disability?? My partner needs to be diagnosed... We are trying to find resources, in virginia. My partner has this and was abused by his former spouse. Resources for testing? He does not make much money... He is an adult and his former spouse would mock him daily and shame him.

Thank you because I've always wanted to learn this song for so long because I love this song so much but have never though if I could do this especially the moves that Brittany cherry dose in the music video because I tried doing this with my art teacher and we both thought we did wonderful before we watched this video and that's when we knew what we did wrong and what we had to do to make it work just like in the music video

You are great ❤

Thank you for your story it is 2023 and so you are aware that your video and story is still helping others that struggle..

❤

My son is ADHD and SLD. He is kind, charismatic, funny, loving, charming and so cute. He is also resilient and has perseverance. I will take him as he is over being book smart or an academic any day. I love every bit of him. ❤❤❤❤

We need more Kyles in this world ❤❤❤

I'm 52 and I'm still dealing with this. I failed high school because I was "stupid." I've been in school since 2016 studying herbal medicine which I've had a passion for and I learned today that I failed to earn my diploma. Last week, I failed my nutrition classes too. I feel like I'm in high school all over again.

Oh this broke my heart I was in a similar situation as a child my mother was told I would never succeed in life but my personality would get me through life. I struggled and I was never helped in school. I hate every minute in school the humiliation and trauma has stayed with me for life. I went to university aged 41 and was finally diagnosed with dyslexia in the final year, and graduated in an honours degree without any assistance. I now know that it doesn’t reflect our intelligence others make us feel stupid which we aren’t. 😘

People talk about school struggle but there is a big challenge at work setting. Some Bosses can be understanding or fire you.

I have learning disability &epilepsy too but

Katherine, when teachers blame the child, it means it's very bad teaching. Teachers should realise that there are many different ways of teaching.

Yo the authenticity of this woman is inspiring! God is on the move!!!

thank you, this helped me to understand my kid better and to keep encouraging them for literally a million hours they have been putting into their studies with just a 'normal' results, at least they know that their hard work I have always appreciate it, and not just focusing on the remarkable score itself.

Thank you for this! I am sharing it with my students that I work with who have learning disabilities :)

I agree .

I, too, have a learning disability, ADHD and dysgraphia. I was told I would not account for anything. I always said I will prove you wrong.

We all learn in different ways and sometimes it takes longer to pick things up be proud of who you are and be the best you can be

This is an ICONIC crossover

Thank you so much Katherine Cahoon

I’m a middle-age man I have learned disability since childhood learning reading, and writing and depression, anxiety.

Great report!

Great experiance catherine, you r wndrfll

I learned by virtual seeing it done, not being told how to accomplish it. Words mean nothing to me. I'm seeking for people who are in this disorder. Ty for this video/ struggle...

You are amazing 🎉

I suffer from dyslexia and I remember when I was in the 1th grad over hearing my first grade teacher talking down on me I remember every word she said to other teachers about me she would say that because of my dyslexia i wasn't gonna amount to nothing in life and that's all it took for me to hear now it's hard for me to find confidence and there's a lot of things I have in mind to become. like my own boss is my main goal but my dyslexia. Makes me feel like I don't fit in with everyone else. That's because. I loved my first grade teacher at first I thought she was a nice person but. Any ways I just wanted to say thank you to that teacher. now look at me I can't find it in me to try and follow what I really want to do witch is becoming my own boss. But Im not good for nothing.

😥😣

When I was in the 4th grade I was put in a special Ed class due to a comprehension disability. People don’t understand the mental health struggles that came with feeling isolated and separated at a young age. Every morning I had to walk to the other side of the school ALONE while my cousins and friends all went to the regular Ed hallways. But I got back into regular Ed in 9th grade🎉! I changed my IEP to IGP, I increased my Lexile score, I took honors classes and graduated HS class of 2021.

Thanks for the video,u are amazing, u have just help me ,ooh I forget u beautiful.

🥰🥰

I also have a learning disability I'm worried that i won't be good for working
