Dyslexia/dyscalculia resides in different parts of the brain. Because of this, the right side of the brain is dominant. This means that information is processed on this side of the brain. Most people think with the left side of the brain where language and math is processed. Many students with dyslexia/dyscalculia are therefore creative and musical. In schools, we often don't see this because our school system is based on the 80 percent left brain thinking. When you pair someone with dyslexia/dyscalculia with projects with someone without this disability, you create a dream team.
In this glossy you will read facts, fables, facts, tips and articles about dyslexia/dyslexia. Carolien Poels the owner of the dyslexia academy tells how she started her work, how to support students and how she views the school system.
