In fact, dyslexics when they are fully empowered and they recognize that innate intelligence, represent 35 percent of all entrepreneurs; they represent 40 percent of all self-made millionaires. And you know those &#8216;rocket scientists&#8217; down at NASA? One out of two of them is dyslexic. My favorite, because I live in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is this uh, you know, easy-to-get-into school called MIT.

And they can mold and shape the curriculum around the emerging interests of the children going through the homeschooling program.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dean Bragonier on &#8220;The True Gifts of a Dyslexic Mind&#8221; In this video, Dean Bragonier explains that dyslexics have a tremendous capacity for learning and creativity: &#8220;We&#8217;ve all heard how Einstein is dyslexic, right?
