Yes. Studies suggest that a person with dyslexia will have the same difficulties with a second language. I found the answer to your question in a 2000 article by Charlann Simon from the Annals of Dyslexia titled “Dyslexia and foreign language: A personal experience.”

This article contains a brief review of the literature on dyslexia and learning second languages, as well as a personal account of the process. This article comes from the interdisciplinary journal of the International Dyslexia Association, so it is an authoritative source. You can access that article here: findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3809/is... I found this article with a simple web search.

First, I went to the Google homepage: google.com Then I searched for “dyslexia learning languages”. There is no need to use quotation marks in the search, I just used them here to identify the search terms. The article mentioned above was the second returned result.

That search string will also link you to a list of relevant articles through Google Scholar. Google Scholar sometimes links to subscription databases, so you may not always be able to access the content. It is worth having a look through these sources though, because they come from authoritative, scholarly sources.

I also found some interesting information on the educator’s view of dyslexia and bilingualism. Text from the British Dyslexia Association’s 5th Annual Conference from 2001 includes a paper by Lindsay Peer and Gavin Reed on dyslexia and multilingualism. You can find that paper here: http://www.bdainternationalconference.org/2001/presentations/thu_s6_a_3.htm Significant attention has been paid to dyslexic children learning multiple languages recently because it offers a valuable opportunity to study the mechanics condition.

I found an article in the Independent News on study involving a bilingual boy. You can access that article here: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/bilingual-boy-proves-perfect-for-studying-dyslexia-1105366.html I found these last two articles through a simple Google search as well. This time I searched for “dyslexia bilingual” (no need for quotes).

Those articles appeared as the 4th and 5th results returned from the search. As I looked through results, I was careful to check the URLs below each link to verify that the source’s quality. I tend to look for news agencies or URLs ending in .

Org, . Gov, or .edu. If you would like more information on this topic, I would recommend contacting or visiting your local library.

I hope this answers your question! Sources: findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3809/is... .

Dyslexia is organic and specific to the person. And as such, whatever that person endeavors to learn, will have that glitch to be gotten around. This does not mean the person cannot learn.My older brother was a maintenance mechanic for 15 years after barely graduating from high school (and constantly hearing my mom whine about "Why can't you be as smart as your oldest brother?

" Somehow, I inspire him to go back to school and he's told, "Well, Mr. Davis, you're dyslexic. " Thanks for nothin', mom. He goes on to get his B.S. In transportation geography.

Oh, and the oldest brother? He never even graduated from high school.It's not what work one has to do, it's whether one is willing to do the work.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
