Who made it I've never seen them before any info ???
not sure if that's true dyslexia. It's more an uncorrected typo made by someone who touch types. I do it all the time It's my fingers that are dyslexic, not my brain.
I raised a dyslexic son, so recognise the real thing.
My mother noticed my syslexia when I was old enough to read letters and read out as she was driving down the road. In the days before all the programs she mentioned it to the teacher in grade school who kept an eye on it and corrected any reverse numbers and letters. I found I could write backwards or mirror write in the 5th grade when given a punishment, I thought ufair. The instructor said 'what is this' to the paper and I informed her she said t write the punishment line 100 times.... I had done so and showed her in the mirror. The next time I received a written punishment from that instructor she commented to write it forward. The sign mother noticed I had 'misread' was an old ESSO sign. I called out 3sso.
My Son has coped very well, despite not getting a lot of help as a child, as the school he went to was useless.
He is now BSc (2nd class honours) and M.Ed. He helps out at a youth club and a coding Dojo in his spare time, but hopes eventually to get a position teaching those with special educational needs, with the emphasis on adult learners who have been let down by the system.
I went to catholic school and in that time frame it was still run by the Sisters of Mercy. 8 grades in a 4 classroom school. The advantage in the classroom was a preview if you were in the lower class and a review if you were in the upper class. It was a time before all the special classes ... pre 1970. I was taught to read my numbers 3 times before continuing when writing numbers and sounding out words in my head to spell them ... Once I had written them down... do not look and erase them. I continue to use that method even now. It has caused problems for me but I survive. Spell check is a lifesaver. I wish him well on his endevours.
