Fantastic explanation of dyslexia, and how dyslexics think and learn! This should be shared widely to educators, parents, and dyslexic individuals who have brilliant minds that think differently!

[@joebailey7361]

I totally agree. 👍🏼 I'm dyslexic.

Inspiring!! Thank you Sue. As a teacher - and as someone who learns differently - this really speaks to me.

[@DaiManuelOfficial]

Sue, your ability to explain and share a story, magical. Loved every bit of your talk and also appreciate how it's shifted my understanding around learning. Thank you!!

[@raymiller1383]

I watched this one on the livestream. It is tragic how many of us can identify directly with the experiences here. Thank you for this message,

[@brendansmacleod3192]

This hit different to other dyslexia Ted Talks. She's great at explaining it!

[@tessahalliwell417]

This makes so much sense. Reminds me of my child. I hope schools can take this message on board!

[@TomDutta]

Truly inspiring - I am currently a Dyslexia teacher and am amazed every day with the thought processes and the intelligence my students exhibit. I especially loved her statement, "Everyone is learning abled if they are enabled to learn in the way they were born." Powerful.

I can’t imagine not being able to look at an elephant and walk around it and see it from any angle in my mind I spin everything around in my mind and look at it and turn it into exploded view with everything.

[@brandontang7578]

Such an important topic and well said!

[@shtumtoom5501]

A startling paradigm shift. I'm singing up for your course (haha~!)

[@dragonbleu1205]

3:23 In my case I learn differently and more slowly and the amount of information quickly saturates my working memory. So it's not just a difference, it's above all a learning handicap, a very very slow learning speed, and very limited. And also a brain that sometimes decided to memorize something and sometimes not at all. And everything that is by heart has to be repeated 20 times more times than normal brains because mine doesn't memorize anything by heart. I hate my brain, it ruins my life every day with its ultra-limited verbal working memory. I don't have your superb image viewing quality. I learned drawing from art studies and my brain is so poor at mental imagery, that there are no details, I can't draw in imaginative drawing, my brain stores symbolic images like children and not like professional designers. So my brain screwed me for my artistic studies too because ok I can think in images but they are ultra low resolution images, blurry without details and simple, no way to make it a "strength".

The computer analogy is spot on!

[@dragonbleu1205]

From 80's...

[@dragonbleu1205]

8:16 I really think that my brain is deficient and every day I have mental difficulties in my everyday life because it's the working memory that is rotten. So it's not just a difference, it's also a bad brain that doesn't work well.

[@janenejansevanrensburg8766]

Hi Sue. Where can I find your book in South Africa?

[@joshuashepanski3552]
