My Experience With Dyslexia | Aussie and the Brit

Dyslexia is something that around 1 in 10 people in the UK live with, many of them going undetected for most, if not all of their life. Will decided to sit down and chat about it and how it has impacted his life. He shares some of the signs and symptoms that he showed as well as tips and tricks he has learned to make his education and daily life easier. Will's twin sister Sarah also has dyslexia but due to it not being as severe, she had a very different experience with it so they are able to share more than one perspective.
If you have dyslexia, or think that you or someone you know might have it, then check out the sites below for aids that are mentioned in this video. We are not affiliated in any way with any of these businesses, they are just things that Will and Sarah use to make life with dyslexia easier.

The main point that we wanted to make is that dyslexia does not have to hold you back. It is nothing to be ashamed of and you are NOT dumb! In fact most dyslexics are incredibly smart. Dyslexia is just a different way of processing information so find what works for you and use the tools available to you and don't let anything hold you back.
