Dyslexia

Dyslexia is a learning difference that makes reading, writing, and spelling more challenging. It’s not about intelligence—it’s about how the brain processes words and letters. For example, someone with dyslexia might mix up letters like "b" and "d" or struggle to sound out words. With the right support and strategies, people with dyslexia can thrive. In short, it’s a common condition that makes reading harder but doesn’t stop someone from being smart and successful.
