Dyslexia is a learning disorder not a disease, and the presentation began with a display of famous dyslexics. Then he went on to show how no two dyslexics are the same, which he illustrated by showing the sample testing scores of various students. The audience was given hands-on experience of being dyslexic in various ways, including map drawing and trying to spell unfamiliar words while writing with the opposite hand with distractions. An explanation of how to detect the signs of dyslexia in students was quite beneficial for teachers. The talk ended with a spirited question and answer period from the enthusiastic audience.
