The first time I had ever heard of Dyslexia was actually on the show <i>Arthur<\/i> because George actually had it and learned that Leonardo DaVinci actually had dyslexia as well. I&#8217;ve always been curious about it, so I&#8217;m so happy to have Rachel shed more light on it today!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"color: red; font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">(Images aren&#8217;t mine)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<!-- more --><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">Hello! My name is Rachel. I have lived 15 years in this world. I am homeschooled. I am dyslexic. My hobbies include writing, dancing, and playing my ukulele.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>How does your dyslexia physically feel?

This often makes me feel stupid when I am not. It is embarrassing asking people to rewrite what they just texted me.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><b>How do you feel about dyslexia?&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">I feel conflicted about dyslexia. School can be extremely frustrating and pointless at times. But then I smile when I realize that likely the reason why I am gifted with music and writing is because of dyslexia. I believe that people who are dyslexic are rather gifted at storytelling.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><b>What challenges does dyslexia pose?&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">Reading comprehension mostly. I can read an entire book and not understand anything that happened. This can be challenging, as I always have to reread chunks or even entire chapter again. Sometimes, (especially if I am having a philosophical\/complicated discussion online), I cannot understand what the person is saying and I have to ask them to retell what they said in simpler words. But I am lucky to have kind friends who don\u2019t mind translating what they said to \u201cRachelenese\u201d hahahaha.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><b>Is there anything you like about being dyslexic?&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">I like the positive things that come with dyslexia. Such as intuition, intelligence, musical giftings, writing, and storytelling. These things are common among dyslexics, though I am not sure if I can find any science behind it or not. Dyslexia isn\u2019t completely figured out in the science world. I think it is because dyslexics tend to be right brain dominate while being surprisingly capable on the left side as well. Having to adapt makes us use both sides (but probably the right mostly).<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><b>Do you think your day differs from others because of being dyslexic?&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">I tend to take many short breaks throughout my day. I also have certain ways of doing things. For example, I color code all of my notes. That way I can easily find a vocabulary definition without having to read entire pages of notes. Sometimes I listen to a particularly difficult book read aloud, though I don\u2019t prefer to do this. I am more of a visual learner (but not through reading) than an audio learner. But this is certainly not true for many dyslexics, I know many who listen to books all the time rather than reading them.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"473\" data-original-width=\"308\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/victoriagracehowell.com\/staging\/6258\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/george_promo_726.png?resize=260%2C400\" width=\"260\" \/><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">George from <i>Arthur<\/i><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\">Do you have any cultural differences between others who are also dyslexic and those who are not?&nbsp;<\/span><\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">I\u2019m not sure of cultural differences, but we are a rather unique set of people. I can spot a dyslexic just by speaking to them. Dyslexics tend to describe things in metaphors or so. They explain with their hands more than others. And most of all (If you happen to have the opportunity to see this) they confuse directions, whether that\u2019s left and right, or where something is located in comparison to another thing or just any kind of directions.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">Generally, when this happens they have a \u2018dumb\u2019 look on their face, but it\u2019s really because they are running through all the possible options in their mind. They\u2019re probably even overwhelmed by all the possible options. So yes, I suppose something about the way our brains are wired makes us stand out. We have a different kind of intelligence that school exams don\u2019t display.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><b>What are some stereotypes about dyslexia that irk you?&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">Probably what is most annoying is when people think that I can\u2019t do something. I can figure out left and right, I might have to figure it out in a different way than \u201cnormal\u201d people, but I can do it. Or that I can\u2019t write, I can write quite fine. I may have an increased number of grammar and spelling mistakes, but really, doesn\u2019t everyone?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><b>What media portrays dyslexia badly be it a movie, a book, or a TV show?&nbsp;<\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">I didn\u2019t really like Percy Jackson\u2019s dyslexia. (Though I haven\u2019t read the book, sorry) mostly because he gave up on school, he wasn\u2019t particularly persistent nor hard working. Though perhaps it is an accurate portrayal, I\u2019m simply not fond of having a dyslexic \u2018roll model\u2019 sorta just give up on school.&nbsp;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1000\" data-original-width=\"1600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/victoriagracehowell.com\/staging\/6258\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Percy-Jackson-percy-jackson-33868604-1680-1050.jpg?resize=640%2C400\" width=\"640\" \/><\/div>\n<p>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><b><span style=\"font-size: large;\">What media portrays dyslexia well be it a movie, a book, or a TV show?&nbsp;<\/span><\/b><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">My favorite character is actually Venelope, from Wreck-it Ralph.

As a dyslexic, there are many glitch moments.
