12. I learned from lectures

Thank you spell check, I misspelled learned. I am dyslexic and listening is the only way I can learn. I nearly failed 3rd grade and finished 517 in a class of 535 in high school. I now have 3 masters because they discovered dyslexia, not in me but I mean discovered, as in, first figured it out, when I was a senior in college. Reading speeds range from not at all to 2000 wpm. During college I was sent to speed reading classes. Of course, it never helped. Hearing is just as valid as reading.
