Inspirational People who have overcome Dyslexia

It's time to stop thinking of dyslexia as a "disability". Rather, it is a "difference" in brain neurobiology. It's a "disability" because we do not recognize it early enough and are "disabled" due to poor teaching practices not based on the science of reading acquisition. It's a disability because our schools do not teach the way these students need to learn. The way ALL students need to learn. They are smart. They are brilliant. They are "disadvantaged" and therefore made "disabled" by the lack of understanding of what research has informed us about teaching reading.  That's not only unfair, its wrong.
