dyslexiavlog.blogspot.com This video is a response to some of the messages from other dyslexic law degree students I’ve been receiving via YouTube. A common theme is that the compulsory modules on a law degree are particularly challenging. I talk about a strategy for dealing with this that I’ve recognised in my own studies. I recommend some helpful books and I discuss the benefits of dyslexia to employers.
On law, well it’s a language all it’s own
All those possible combinations of words makes for a lot of different possible timings and I feel Dyslexic people are good at understanding different timings. I think that’s as best I can put this in words at this time hehe
If you have more questions on what I mean feel free to send a PM. Questions help me get things out sometimes where as in these little comment boxes I can just ramble on and on.. Maybe I’ll make a little vid on it to show what I mean.
So like different emotions can have different timings too. If you want I can ask my friend about the book he read on it but I don’t know it. Was in highschool
And of course we’re always changing so I don’t know how well the science of it works..
It’s just the best way I’ve found to describe what it feels like being dyslexic, is that I’m slow=) Like a turtle everything new becomes more deliberate and it becomes a part of us as we learn, like you say. Don’t have to go very far to find our self;)
People say that there’s timing to how we speak, I don’t understand it but I feel it sometimes, I notice they talk different. It’s punctuation, language patterns no different then on paper or talking. Although on paper we can more easily adapt words to our own “timing” so to speak. From what I remember it has to do with number of syllables to number of words in a sentence, something like a ratio,,, Not good with math though:) A super speed person would calculate it a dyslexic can feel it more.
I’m not sure if I understand. Is that the effect of punctuation on timing or just how fast the word is read?
My take on it is that dyslecix people would be great in law. I find that as a dyslexic person I’m just slow.(Ijust typed out the entire word people even though I knew I was writing person haha getting tired)
So in that we have to “find out” the timings so to speak of words to understand them. Does that make sense? So that once you understand tose timings it’s easier, where as average person just has a mid to fast speed and so just goes along or runs through things. And therefor can miss details
