My mission was to support them by developing effective solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being dyslexic is a suffering that only a &#8220;dys&#8221; person can really understand. It is <strong>a suffering that also extends to the family <\/strong>and entourage because there is a lot of misunderstanding and feelings of injustice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dysfunctional disorders have existed since the dawn of time. It&#8217;s no longer a secret. <br> How many famous characters have proved to be &#8220;DYS&#8221;: Leonardo da Vinci, <strong>Michelangelo<\/strong>, Galileo, <strong>Louis Pasteur<\/strong>, Albert Einstein, Mohammed Ali, Winston Churchill, Steven Spielberg, John Lennon, <strong>John F. Kennedy<\/strong>, Picasso, Walt Disney, Steve Jobs and <strong>Bill Gates<\/strong>\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is it not surprising to find <strong>writers, scientists, presidents, entrepreneurs and artists<\/strong> who have left their mark on humanity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How did they manage to <strong>overcome their &#8220;dys&#8221; disorders <\/strong>and surpass themselves at times when there were no educational structures to support them ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How many of them were<strong> considered as dunces at school <\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And despite this, they have been able to develop, by themselves, compensatory strategies that have enabled them <strong>to overcome their dysfunctions <\/strong>and also to develop their potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All this is reassuring because it means that <strong>there are solutions and that these solutions are within them<\/strong>. This is why, despite years of intensive support, some adult &#8220;dys&#8221; continue to suffer from their disorders. They have not found all the solutions that suit them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brain of a &#8220;dys&#8221; would be like pieces of puzzles scattered all over the place. <strong>They can&#8217;t make the links and find the right locations<\/strong> for each part. The objective is to retrieve each part in a precise order and put it in the right place at the right time. <br> Place each piece at a pace chosen by the &#8220;dys&#8221; person without time or learning pressure constraints. <br> Once all the parts have been placed in a structured, logical and thoughtful manner, <br> the puzzle is over. The dyslexic person has managed to understand all the connections between the different elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It is complex to understand a person with these &#8220;dys&#8221; disorders<\/strong> because they often cannot understand why they do not function like others. It is <strong>an opportunity and a gift <\/strong>of which she is unaware. <br> The fact that she must always find techniques to get out of it propels her to a higher level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dyslexics&#8221; are often <strong>creative people and great thinkers<\/strong>. They go further in the analysis and search for solutions. They are pearls to cherish in our society because they will bring a positive impulse and renewal in the dynamics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Benk, we have understood that people with &#8220;dys&#8221; disorders have <strong>above-average intelligence<\/strong>. Despite this, they do not know how to use this intelligence, they are blocked by a school system that keeps them in a mould and an apprenticeship program that does not suit them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They move at their own pace and <strong>understand in their own way<\/strong>. We can&#8217;t put them in molds. They need <strong>a pedagogy adapted to their own difficulties <\/strong>and especially time. A precious time that today&#8217;s society offers less and less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through targeted and appropriate learning techniques linked to the difficulties specific to each individual, <strong>we develop with our &#8220;dys&#8221; students solutions<\/strong> that suit them in order to anchor the information in a sustainable way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the mother of two multi-dys children, I experienced the problem from the inside.
