Dyslexia, a developmental reading disorder, is characterized by difficulty with learning to read fluently and with accurate comprehension despite normal or above-average intelligence. This language processing disorder can hinder reading, writing, spelling and sometimes even speaking. Dyslexia is the most common learning difficulty and most recognized reading disorder. Notable scientists who had dyslexia through history include Leonardo Da Vinci, Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla and James Clerk Maxwell. One out of every five people struggle with dyslexia. Unfortunately many of these individuals remain undiagnosed, untreated and struggling with the impact of their dyslexia. Dyslexia can affect people differently and depends upon the severity of the learning disability and the success of alternate learning methods. For example, some individuals may have trouble only with reading and spelling, while others struggle to write. Adults with unidentified dyslexia often work in jobs below their intellectual capacity. People with dyslexia are often very creative, and they often think of unexpected ways to solve a problem or tackle a challenge.
