The Documentary

BBC WORLD SERVICE, 8.06PM

This programme explores the challenges of life with dyslexia, with contributions from people around the world, as well as researchers and teachers. Dyslexic people recall an early experience of education that can be marked by anxiety and fear that comes from struggling with something that other people appear to find simple. The programme is made by people with dyslexia, including presenter Toby Withers, and considers fascinating research into how bilingual people can be dyslexic in one language but not the other.
