Unlocking Dyslexic Advantage 1 Wide Mind Learner at a Time. A father, son, teachers story of a struggle to read and the education revolution - a genius journey - where we enrich the existing system of deficit based diagnosis, Ed planning (iep) and special education or other disability responses with true strength based assessment, enrichment and health, happiness and success that every child and family deserve. Through the genius journey we see the true nature and brilliance of 20% of human population who’s presisposed to struggle to read - and the challenges they face in a society that makes early decisions about who’s smart and who’s not and who gets what based on diagnosis and screening by a deficit based system that is antiquated out of touch with science and best practices and what we know about what it takes to assist a child who is predisposed to struggle to read. We see the stigmata and impacts, particularly with kids who have other risk factors in their nature / nurture life that set them up as high and then highest at risk of stuggle in school and in our society struggle in school is indicator of struggle in life - the equity and disparity dynamics and the inhumanity and stupidity of current policy and education priorities make a peaceful, bee like focus on building for the collective, the hive mind learning way is the way of individual at center of our approach and then surrounded by loving and trust worthy adults so that we may replace the classroom to prison pipeline with a genius pipeline - one learner at a time.
