My Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Dyscalculia Story

Hey! Thank you for watching my video and I hope you enjoyed it. As I said in the video, I am pretty nervous about uploading this but I think it is really important that I share my story and give more awareness to these difficulties. Where to find me: Instagram: @emiliagee_ Twitter: @emiliagee_ What is Dyslexia? Dyslexia is a learning difference which primarily affects reading and writing skills. However, it does not only affect these skills. Dyslexia is actually about information processing. Dyslexic people may have difficulty processing and remembering information they see and hear, which can affect learning and the acquisition of literacy skills. Dyslexia can also impact on other areas such as organisational skills. It is important to remember that there are positives to thinking differently. Many dyslexic people show strengths in areas such as reasoning and in visual and creative fields. https://www.bdadyslexia.org.uk/dyslex... What is Dyspraxia? Dyspraxia, also known as developmental co-ordination disorder (DCD), is a common disorder that affects your movement and co-ordination. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/develop... What is Dyscalculia? Dyscalculia is a condition that affects the ability to acquire arithmetical skills. Dyscalculic learners may have difficulty understanding simple number concepts, lack an intuitive grasp of numbers, and have problems learning number facts and procedures. Even if they produce a correct answer or use a correct method, they may do so mechanically and without confidence.
