Impacts on learning



Difficulties in the School Environment

Dyslexia affects many aspects of learning and personal development. In the school environment, difficulties with reading and writing can translate into lower performance in activities that involve reading texts and producing written content. This often generates frustrations and emotional challenges, such as low self-esteem, anxiety and fear of participating in the classroom.


Social and Emotional Impact of Dyslexia

In addition to the academic impact, dyslexia can also affect social development and the student's relationship with learning. In environments where there is little understanding about the condition, students may feel stigmatized or even experience bullying. Therefore, support from teachers and colleagues, along with an inclusive learning environment, is essential for students to feel valued and have their capabilities recognized.



The Role of Adequate Support

However, with appropriate support and inclusive educational strategies, the impact of dyslexia can be significantly minimized. Many students with dyslexia excel in areas that do not require the use of conventional reading and writing, such as arts, music and even science. This shows that, despite the difficulties, dyslexia does not define a person's capabilities and that a welcoming learning environment can make all the difference to success and personal fulfillment.
