Princess Beatrice, ambassador for the charity, shares her moving and personal story of the impact dyslexia had on her school days and the vital role that the support from teachers who understand dyslexia played. She talks about why she is driven to be a changemaker and to work with charities to help other dyslexic people get the support they need, and to help young people and parents to understand the amazing strengths that Dyslexic Thinking brings.
“I really do think that teaching teachers how to be aware of the skills that are important for dyslexic thinking can move the needle for a lot of young people.”HRH Princess Beatrice. Lessons in Dyslexic Thinking Podcast
On the podcast, the Princess, who works in communications for a global tech company, discusses how the rise of AI is transformative for Dyslexic Thinkers, and while dyslexia has previously been recognised mainly for challenges with reading, spelling and rote learning, the advancement of technology and adoption of AI means Dyslexic Thinking skills like communication, collaboration, and thinking differently are vital skills for the new world of work.
“I am inspired to see the way that we could probably solve some of the world biggest problems if we put Dyslexic Thinking in the heart of the narrative… Communication, teamwork, collaboration… designing a future where technology and humanity can be symbiotic in the successes we really need to see.” HRH Princess Beatrice.
