Question 4:
"Which career/job is NOT good for a dyslexic person? Your opinion"
At our live events we usually have a Questions Box. Anyone attending the event can (anonymously) write down a question and we share all the questions and answers with everyone afterwards. This format allows people who don't want to stand up and ask a question in front of everyone to still be able to get answers to questions they may have.
Question 4:
"Which career/job is NOT good for a dyslexic person? Your opinion"
Answer:
No career is by default bad for a dyslexic person, but any job that requires a lot of accurate reading and writing – especially in real time – could be difficult. My son is dyslexic, but he is doing a Master’s degree in philosophy which is a lot of reading and writing. But he has time to check and correct any mistakes. A job like a court scribe, where you don’t have time to check and correct, I would not recommend to a dyslexic person.
