In this video interview, Lindy Mabry discusses her experience after being diagnosed with dyslexia in the third grade, and how hard she had to work to overcome her disability. Mabry had a hard time reading, writing, and spelling because of her dyslexia. For her, words tend to appear backwards, upside down, or sideways.

Mabry believes an early diagnosis of dyslexia is a great help for kids in their learning journey. Because she had teachers who weren't willing to help with her dyslexia as a child, she asserts that teachers and educators should be trained on how to handle students who have learning disabilities. She has since been able to garner success, currently working to become a teacher herself, and stresses the importance of not giving up.
