As hard as it may seem to live with a disorder like dyslexia, with the tenacity and the right tools at your disposal, you can do anything. This video shares Brian Meersma's story, as he was diagnosed with dyslexia and still wanted to learn as much as he could. Unfortunately, he found that the traditional methods would leave him mentally exhausted. Instead, he found help when he turned to assistive technology.

Once Brian started using assistive tech, he was able to learn independently at a breakneck speed. In fact, he is now a successful student at Cornell University and can "read" just as well as his classmates. Whether or not a reading disorder is present, all people have the right to access books and printed materials just as easily as anyone else -- and hopefully assistive tech like the ones featured in this video can help make education better for everyone.

In addition to accommodations, you'll also want to get a program that develops weak micro-skills to build into larger successes.
The best way to do that is to get started on the Learning Success System today!

"I'm passionate about technology because I saw how many doors opened for me and other people I knew."
