‘Dyslexia is my superpower’
Zoologist and Springwatch presenter Megan McCubbin says if she could choose, she’d ‘absolutely’ have dyslexia again.
Speaking to 5 Live’s Hayley Hassall, Megan said realising she learned differently as a child was ‘traumatic’ as she “overheard a teacher, this was maybe third grade, saying they had to put me on the stupid table.�
Despite that, and after support from other teachers, Megan now believes that “difference in neurology should be celebrated because difference in neurology becomes difference in ideas.�
