Transcript of Up to 20% of people are estimated to have a Specific Learning Disorder (SLD) such as dyslexia.
Many people have heard of dyslexia, but are unaware
of other SLDs that can impact people just as much!
“I could be anyone”
SLDs are sometimes referred to as
‘hidden disabilities’ because often
it’s not obvious someone has one.
“If you’re going to judge the
cover, you better
read the book”
People joke they have ‘dyslexia’
when they misspell a word,
but is that all dyslexia is?
Actually, SLD affects a person’s
reading, writing, spelling,
organisational skills
and memory.
But that doesn’t mean
they aren’t smart!
They just learn differently!
