Preface
As you will read I have told my personal dyslexic story as a dyslexic child and adult to many people for many years now. Moreover my experienced of the lack of education can be told by countless other people in many different educational environments and situations. Everyone I have shared my story with, barring none has been amazed and at times I have been met with absolute disbelief. Especially when I go on to tell them the types of employment and further education I have gone on to experience. These consist of 2 degrees and I teach secondary school children Design Technology, Home economics up to Key stage 5. As well as facilitating projects in Organic food growing, Positive parenting and Enterprise for the Family. Due to this on a number of occasion certain individuals have told me that I must share my story in a book to which I would always say "I know I should; I'll do it one day" and subsequently conveniently for me; not do it. Until the feeling to share my struggle with education and words overwhelmed me due to a certain number of particular situations that occurred.
