With speech to text so popular, why not give that a try? You can dictate to it what you want it to say and then have it read back to you. Just an idea.
I have worked with a lot of students with dyslexia, teaching them to read. I feel for my students who somehow were not caught at a younger age, as there are many great teaching programs to help students like you. And its so hard watching you struggle NOW, when if someone had just been paying a little more attention, we could have help you MUCH sooner. And you would not be having these problems.
Funny enough with about 6 months to graduation I had a sub that noticed how I turned my books sideways or upside down. They held after to talk and asked me several questions. They had a sibling who was dyslexic & did what they could to help me. I really wish I hadn't had to struggle and learn things on my own. Teachers have my respect. I had wanted to be one, but was told with my dyslexia IF I made it through no one would hire me.
I went into child care and disabled adults for a time. The amount of paperwork through... Lol
I have tried a bunch of voice to text but you have to keep an eye on it because so far many autocorrect you and if I don't fix as I go I tend to not be able to figure out what I wanted to say. Texting gets me a lot. I also think I ramble.
Studying writing English more is on my list.
Thank you for being a teacher, and especially one that cares!
