Catherine Deveny, who has dyslexia, explains how people with dyslexia see the world, and the challenges and benefits of having the disorder. She was diagnosed at the same time as her son, who was nine when they found out that both of them have the disorder, because she told the specialists working with her son that she could understand why her son saw words in the way he did.
One parent with dyslexia talks about her family’s journey with the disorder.
Catherine explains that, compared to the linear perspective that most have, people with dyslexia have more of an aerial perspective, which makes details difficult but problem-solving easier. However, she believes that dyslexia is a difference, not a difficulty, as she was able to make her way through school without a diagnosis by finding ways of learning that were easier for her. Despite the challenges posed by dyslexia, she says that people with dyslexia have incredible strengths.
