Love the way the tutor is saying they 'should' be able to do this, asking 'why not' and putting the pressure on. This is my life daily.

Every person that does anything in education should be required to undergo one of these sessions. Now all we need to do is configure one of these simulations for dyscalculic students.

I'm dislexic I find it hard to spell and I struggle in class all the time and teachers just don't understand what it's like to be like that

i am reading a book called wonder and everyone was one page 106 107 108 and i was on 61

I'm dyslexic and I found the music in the background distracting.

While I have been reading about dyslexia , this video made it more real and as painful as the people with dyslexia experience on a daily basis Thanks very much for sharing !

I too have dyslexia and this looks like a good simulation for teachers and parents. One thing I see in this classroom setting is that everyone was experiencing the same feelings of being inadequate. When you are a child with dyslexia you are the only one in the room that feels this way and everyone else in the room knows all the answers. So you feel like you are not intelligent, you feel fear of ridicule and rejection from your piers and the teachers. A student with dyslexia feels alone in the classroom and in this simulation the students were looking at each other for conformation. They were able to see that they weren't the only one not finish the task. In this case everyone felt like it was hard. But what if you put only one person in that same simulation and everyone else in the room was able to read and answer all the questions. Now that one person would feel the intensity of how a true dyslexic feels like.

There are diffrent aspect of dyslexia. Not all dyslexic people have trouble reading. Some only have problems with numbers. Or maybe just writing. There are different forms that affect diffrent things. Even multiple. It effects, how you remember like list or procedures. Memory , speech, reading both numbers and letters, writing. Those are other aspects people can face with dyslexia.

This simulation make me cry, I discovered myself as a Dislexy after notice that my son could have a learning disability no one was believing on me. It's was and had been a really hard time for me. English is my second language and I am learning yet. So to take my son through all process to be diagnostic it was a challenge, trying to read all this complex vocabulary and talk to the neuro psicologist doctors , teachers social therapist. Now that we know what he has I am researching for improve my rotines to help him keeping in trail and be success adult. And not be fustrad.

I'm dyslexic.. I passed secondary schools with 8 GCSE's and am now doing A-levels. Sounds silly for a lot of people but it's a big moment for people like us😎

This is the closest I've heard of nondyslexic people experiencing a childs dyslexia - mine was worst in 3rd & 4th grades - I hated school with a passion, played sick a lot because couldn't read. I spent all my time trying to figure out what each individual word was, let alone string them together as a sentence. My 5th grade teacher actually really and successfully tried to help and encourage me (a first). I was able to read my first book that summer (all on my own & it was great!!! a milestone, I was slow and still am but I could read a book and enjoy it). College was hard but I got my Ba and then Grad school. Keep up youre really great work.

This is a pretty good test. I often feel like i'm guessing words when rading a text. Over time i learn the shape of certain words, and so i kind of see a picture of a word which i remember reading before. And so i can remember the sound of the word. But every tim i read a new word i stuggel.

thanks i am glad some people take the time out of there day to go through what i do ever day

To make simulations like this even more life like, there should be one or two people in the “class” that are given normal texts or texts that are only slightly more difficult than usual and the “teacher” should praise them and use them as examples of what the others “should” be able to do. I greatly appreciate work like this being done and hope that one day many more people will understand the challenges of being dyslexic.

People think that it's all reading words and while that is a problem it's not the only one. In my opinion math is even harder, because words have a pattern that can be learned. Math on the other hand is a whole new level of terror, because if you misplace a symbol, flip a number, or forget a letter you fail. Don't even get me started on word problems: I have to decipher the words, figure out what it's asking for, write the equation, and solve without messing up. I have spent up to six hours on one high school level word problem and still gotten it wrong.

This video made dyslexia come to life; you were able to feel and have greater empathy of what the dyslexic student goes through.

This is amazing. I wish I could share this with people that don't understand. Thanks for posting :')

This is "Dyslexia for a Day" What would it be like if you had it every day? Would you think it was fair? Would you think people see you as dumb? Would you worry about getting through school? Would you worry about your future? It is not about just reading and writing. It is about the world around you. That is why we need informed and caring educators for students with dyslexia.

I was dixlexic I still am but not as much now.. I hated it so much I remember back in third grade I tried to fit in by reading huge books like everyone else but I couldn’t read it and I also used to have adhd I also still have it but not as much so when I tried to do things I just wouldn’t understand anything. I wish the teachers understood. my d’s where b’s and my 1’s where 7’s everything was backwards so whenever I wrote or read anything it would be wrong and my mom was also very strict so it was so hard for me to learn if you are dixlexic always keep an alphabet next to you that’s what I did and still do today.

That moment when someone asks me to read a passage then asks me about what I've read. It's so frustrating that I can't understand what I've read :(

All the way though school I was told to "try harder" "answer the question then" "what is it you don't understand then" All of them being horrible and causing the other children to laugh at me, only a year ago was I told I had dyslexia. Teachers told me I had to do it or else I wouldn't be going home. Long nights I spent in school to try and complete a book or work I "had" to do. Teachers need to be on the look out instead of making children think they are "stupid" "thick" "an idiot"

This is what I have to deal with every day and every day I am be beaned named dumb idiot but now one understands

I remember being laughed of in eighth grade. I drop out from high school. I wish to continue my studies now I'm 35 with a job I hate.

I had to teach myself how to skimm read so i could keep up with my class. I have really good comprehension skills, but now tgat im older skimming doesnt work as well and i end up having to take extra time to read things. Its very frustrating

the worst thing is I was told that I was dislexic just before SATS and everyday it would be hard for me even In secondary school I still struggle everyday and I often get detention since I can't work as quick as other people but not many understand what its like

I have dyslexia I am only 12 I still think I am really stupid and just a few weeks ago I got captain of my primary school

These people are amazing and I love what they do to show what we go through every fucking day

Still relevant as a way to teach teachers and others about the challenges of dyslexia. In third grade I was sent to a tutor for a bogus reason but she picked up on my "reading" the first syllable of a word and guessing the remainder of the multi syllable word. Her biggest advice to me was two part - read, read, read all kinds of different subject material to increase my vocabulary - next was after each sentence or paragraph to think "did that make sense". Even if b, d, p, q, m, n, u, v, w played their games I could generally figure out the first syllable as many just didn't make sense so words such as baseball, basement, baseless could be guessed in the context of the subject matter even if I skipped over the second syllable. At age 69 now I still laugh at my misreading KZfaq titles and other things but things like dyslexic font and "dark mode" do make things somewhat easier to manage. ASD, ADHD and dyslexia don't disappear with age, many of us manage with various work arounds to cope and manage. Then spell check is nice if it is working correctly but sometimes I just can't figure out even the close to correct spelling for spell check to make appropriate corrections. The "test page" I could likely read the full thing within the time limit now without referring to the "changed letters" but may need to reread some sentences due to misinterpretation of some words.

As a child in the early 70s, i can see my self as artistic, i am a good illustrator than anyone at my age that time, A good singer, a good dancer, But one terrifying task that i face each day, was school, I had a severe learning problem, a read slow and learned slow, and iam weak in mind and my physical motor, often bullied at school, and the worse is that i couldnt memorize all the multiplication tables, even if i tried, those days they dont know anything about this in the philippines, all they know, if a child learn things so difficult... is you are just another stupid dumb kid in school, or they can say abnormal or idiot, My journey thru life is like hell for me, because of my severe math problems, i had lost so many chances, like joining the US NAVY, since i coulndt pass thier math exams when i was a teen, Just because this dyslexic demon had kept me out of the normal world, I had graduated from a design school in 1988, and i had been able to get a job and got married and had two kids, whom very fortunate who are very smart and does not to have dyslexia, A kind of curse that tormented me all my life until this moment., If only i can ask GOD, if i will get a chance to live again in this cruel world.... is to be born as normal like everyone else who can learn math and be so good at it, and so as to exceed in my school and be a productive & very intelligent person to serve and perform in any complicated job that i can achieve.

I am dyslexic I have been told that dyslexics are stupid and they can't do anything when was in fourth grade I was diagnosed I am a smart student but I had lots of help at my school we have a reading test to decide what reading level we are and we had to read as fast as we can so I usually got put at the lowest level after I was tutored 2 days a week for two hours but it helped me tremendously and I hope to one day help raise money for all dyslexics to be tutored

I’m dyslexic and if there is anything else going on in the room when I try to read im instantly distrackted, that’s what they didn’t experience. People also think you gets use to it and learn to live with it at school, this is totally false atleast in my case, looking at the page is like looking into a collapsed sun, it’s painful

I’m so happy people are understanding what I go throw in the classroom

I was diagnosed in the second grade and wasn't able to read or write till 11th grade. Fortunately for me I was able to figure out a way. I was told that almost never happens though. Normally if they can't get you reading by the 4th or 5th grad that's it.

I have dyslexia and me seeing this was nice haha I hope a lot of people can feel and know this my dad told me in 5th grade to read bigger books but I couldn't and I loved comics and smaller books with smaller words in it but now I have a teacher in middle school that helped me a lot and now I am in normal language arts and not special ed but he had to leave last year and I felt terrible he was an amazing teacher

They had it easy. Dyslexia causes 10 identifiable reading difficulties for me. They only had to deal with one issue at a time.

I have dyslexia but mildly so my spelling is really bad but I'm better at other stuff so the teachers always push me and I struggle so much with that ;-; I also loose the line I'm reading on anyone else the same

I can't read or do math I'm going to be a US marine

I want some ppl to do this, I can read fairly well with certain things but am not able to read a textbook pretty much at all, instructions can be rough, and terms of service rarely make sense but at least no one else is reading that one anyway. It would be nice if ppl could understand better why I didn't learn how to use adobe or how to make a game or just understand why I don't read a lot of books and know why it takes me so long to read one or read summaries or just like all numbers related things, numbers are impossible, I know the process for basic maths but I can't read the numbers and I want ppl to get how frustrating that is.

I feel special when people make videos about my disability,

I feel so bad I hoped this video is shared to everyone 💖💖💖

Once I ask my teacher if I would be allowed to be reading a big book with like 134 page but with my dyslexia he said no and he told me to still practice reading so my friends were making fun off me

I’m dyslexic i have problems with reading, spelling Organising and comprehension

I too have a problem with reading and writing there are times that I want to hire somebody to dictate for me

My sister has dyslexia, I have to help her through everyday schoolwork, and I feel how she feels. her dyslexia is very serious.

OML this is so relatable

The worst thing of having dyslexia is when your told to read out loud during class :C I just hate it.

Fuck kid I'm out of high school and I'm still amazed by the books people read

I have dyslexia and it's like the hardest thing in the world to deal with and especially I have ADHD and that's even harder so yeah

I think, it may have humbled them. When I read, my brain picks some words in the sentence and not all the whole sentence, so I have to figure out what it's saying. I knew something was wrong with me, learning wise, but didn't have a name for it. Now I do. It takes me hours and hours just to read and study. It's frustrating, spelling don't even get me started......i have to break down the word. And I think I have ADHD, my husband thinks I do, for years. I have a name for it! I'm in my 50s.

I’m dyslexic never got any help with school I really liked school until it was just too difficult for me dyslexia kinda ruined school for me

Now try for your hole life.

I talked to a so-called expert in 1988 at Kaiser Med in Oakland and he said 'What do you want out of this? We know people outgrow this once they are in their teens."
