A 101 on Dyslexia and Dyspraxia

View descriptionShare

Brilliant minds like Albert Einstein, who excelled in mathematics, faced challenges because of dyslexia. Famous figures like Jennifer Aniston, Whoopi Goldberg, Spike Lee, Muhammad Ali, Magic Johnson, Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs also grappled with this learning difficulty. Dyslexia, also known as word blindness, involves struggles with reading, writing, and spelling accurately. In addition to dyslexia, some individuals, including Albert Einstein, Whoopi Goldberg, and Thomas Edison, also had dyspraxia, a neurological disorder that affects motor skills and coordination. This morning we want to shed light on what these two conditions; dyslexia and dyspraxia, entail. Occupational Therapist at the Bellavista School Salome van der Merwe joins Morio Sanyane for the conversation.
