should give encouragement to children with
dyslexia. Paul Orfalea is one of the most
successful entrepreneurs in the country, and he achieved
all of this despite (or because of) his dyslexia. His
story has given me a lot of inspiration for my 8 Wishes,
and it was amazing to meet someone who is so much like me.
Knowing all this gives me hope.

What is a Learning disability?
Definition: A "learning
disability" is a disorder in one or more of the
basic psychological processes involved in understanding
and using language spoken or written which may manifest
itself in an imperfect ability to listen, think, speak,
read, spell, or do mathematical calculations.
Learning
differences and ADHD are often the result of a problem
with the central nervous system where perception and/or
processing may be affected. While a neurologically-based
problem will not disappear, an individual who receives
help and assistance can usually learn compensation
strategies for his particular learning style.
International Dyslexia
Association
Welcome! The
International Dyslexia Association (IDA) is a non-profit
organization dedicated to helping individuals with
dyslexia, their families and the communities that support
them. IDA is the oldest learning disabilities
organization in the nation -- founded in 1949 in memory
of Dr. Samuel T. Orton, a distinguished neurologist.
Throughout our rich history, our goal has been to provide
the most comprehensive forum for parents, educators, and
researchers to share their experiences, methods, and
knowledge.
All Kinds of Minds
The All Kinds of
Minds mission is to help students who struggle with
learning measurably improve their success in school and
life by providing programs that integrate educational,
scientific, and clinical expertise. Our primary goal is
to educate teachers, parents, educational specialists,
psychologists, pediatricians, and students about
differences in learning, so that children who are
struggling in school because of the way their brains are
wired are no longer misunderstood.
