What would it be like if we challenged the image that people have of dyslexia? One artist has done just that, and aims to show that dyslexics can be creative. This video spotlights a 20-year-old man who can’t read or write, but sees it as an advantage when it comes to his art. Because of that, he doesn't see his dyslexia as an illness. His work has since been used as a campaign for awareness about the strengths dyslexics have.

Dyslexics have potential that people usually ignore. The dyslexics in this video experienced discrimination in school because of their inability to fit in the school's standards of learning. However, they all agree that they are creative and not unintelligent, like how dyslexia is often perceived. It's important to remember that dyslexia is not a problem, just a difference, and a lot of creative energy can come out of it. 

There are easy ways to drastically improve your reading ability by identifying just one "micro-skill.”
Use our simple online analysis tool to help you find what areas need strengthened.

When people think about dyslexia they tend to think about reading and spelling difficulties and actually there's a lot of potential in people that we're not tapping into. If people understood about the talents that they have and how could they approach their learning in a different way they will be able to show their strengths.

Key Takeaways:

1
This is a campaign to create an awareness about the potential or strengths of being dyslexic and not only as a learning disability.
2
Dyslexia is not a problem, its a difference and a lot of creative energy can come out of it.
3
Dyslexics deal with experiences in school where they experience discrimination because of their inability to fit in the school's standards of learning.
