I'm quite dyslexic in school.

I probably went all the way to junior high school before a school doctor told me that I was 'dyslexic.'

That said, being dyslexic, I wasn't a great reader when I was kid.

I was dyslexic, so I was put in the silly class at school.

I was growing up in the 50's and 60's. Back then they didn't even know what dyslexia was.

I'm dyslexic, although they didn't have a word for it when I was in grade school. The teachers said I had 'word blindness.'

I was dyslexic, I had no understanding of schoolwork whatsoever. I certainly would have failed IQ tests. And it was one of the reasons I left school when I was 15 years old. And if I - if I'm not interested in something, I don't grasp it.

Being dyslexic, I was told that I was an idiot all the time.

Though my parents assured me over and over again that I wasn't stupid or slow, I sensed that my dyslexia was now a stigma on all of us.
