معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
Imagine a child in a classroom, bright, curious, and full of ideas. But every time words dance on the page, they twist into shapes that don’t make sense. The teacher thinks the child isn’t trying hard enough, and report cards carry painful labels that stick for years. Yet beneath all that, the child isn’t slow. The child isn’t incapable. The child simply learns differently.
In this episode, Aml speaks with Rosaline Abigail Kyere-Nartey, founder and executive director of the Africa Dyslexia Organization, about how her late discovery of dyslexia propelled her into building one of Africa’s leading movements for learning-difference awareness and support.
Rosaline shares how her frustration as a misunderstood learner became the seed for an organization now driving awareness, teacher training, policy advocacy, and research around learning differences, particularly dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and dyspraxia. She also reflects on the Africa Dyslexia Conference and why so many learners with extraordinary abilities continue to be overlooked.
Africa is losing countless brilliant minds, not to lack of ability, but to lack of understanding. And changing that begins with awareness, compassion, and systems that recognize every learner’s potential. This conversation is a reminder that talent is everywhere, but understanding and support are what allow it to thrive.
