- Financier Charles Schwab recalls how he struggled in school, especially English class, because of his undiagnosed dyslexia. In college, he could take notes or pay attention, but not both. His son’s diagnosis with similar symptoms helped Schwab realize he too had a learning disability, which he struggles with to this day. Schwab has focused some of his philanthropic endeavours towards those whose lives have suffered due to dyslexia. Plus, he recalls the challenge of giving a speech in front of his high school class.

I am also dyslexic couldn’t pass anything in high school didn’t know it til I got to college. Learned some techniques to help me worked hard and got my doctorate this year with a 4.0gpa.
Can you share some of the techniques that helped you please 🙏🏽
I didn't get diagnosed until college either, and I wish I had been sooner.
@@superheroesanddollhouses4139 I'm a dyslexic, and I study using the pomodoro technique it helps me avoid burnout. Also, I use the paid-for version of Grammarly because it catches things that Word doesn't. You can also set it to what type of writing you are doing, which is great. In Word, I often use the Read Aloud setting found under the Review tab and listen for mistakes that I didn't see. I had my college's access office convert reading to files that worked in Word and had the program read it to me. Sometimes I read along; other times I only listened. I also discovered in my phone's accesablitity settings for the blind I could have it read files that I opened from my email and could listen to readings that way. For important things like names dates etc I started a highlighter color code. Blue for names, green for when and where dates etc. Pink for important.. Orange for Vocbulary terms etc. Giving each thing its own color helped me flip through readings MUCH Easier when I had to write papers since my reading speed isn't the quickest. I hope that some of this helps. It is how I survived two Grad Shcool degrees.
I love Charles Schwab. 25 years ago he gave me a chance to be a stockbroker. Me a high school dropout. A girl who lived in a trailer park, in a single wide trailer. He paid me well while his company provided the learning. I received my series 7 and 63 but importantly I learned to believe in myself.
Thank you Chuck. ❤
