    Dyslexia impacts on learning however targeted teaching strategies provide compensatory interventions. Dyslexia is not correlated with IQ, just like any individual IQ dyslexics spans the bell curve.

    No, not in the least. They just look at things a bit differently than we do is all. They're just as smart as the next person.

    In fact people with dyslexia sometimes are much smarter or more creative since a different part of their brain is more developed

    I am so often amazed at how little the human race has evolved in terms of understanding intellect & the senses. One of the brightest students in neurophysiology at uni was blind, she aced the degree & went on to get her doctorate. Ironically most of us don't see the forest for the trees coz we're blind to what we see everyday.

    Of course not! It is a mental disability, a handicap, but does not make someone stupid.

    Just because your brain mixes up letters doesn't mean you are stupid. Stupidity can be helped, and for the most part is a choice, but dyslexia is not a choice, and is hard to over come. People who work through this and lead their lives not letting it bring them down should be congratulated. Not everyone can do that.

    I don't think being dyslexic means you're stupid. There are probably plenty of intelligent people who are dyslexic.

    But I'm in all AP classes and I maintain an average of a 95% in my classes. But apparently I'm stupid because of a disability......................

    Miss 666 I don't think you're stupid at all and I don't consider dyslexia a disability per say. You've just got a slightly different way of looking at things is all.

    Not at all. Some are even smarter than students without a disability.
    Having a disability doesn't make you stupid or dumb, it just complicates your life a little bit. But just because something's difficult doesn't mean it's impossible. Whoever said that is an ignorant fool.

    Not at all. It's just a setback. Don't listen to what other people say. They are just ignorant.
