To the people who think dyslexia is used as an excused to be lazy, your wrong. We cant help it but we do try. I am a college student with dyslexia and now will graduate with my Associats degree with HONERS. it took me 4yrs not 2 but slow and steady wins...

[Gringer]

Thank you for this. I was diagnosed at 40yo with Dyslexia. Went through the same journey. Cried with relief when I was diagnosed as it had a name it wasn't stupid...

[Davett]

I suffered with learning disabilities too. I'm 70 now. I was tutored after school and every summer. I was never diagnosed with anything. I was a called a slow learner. I hated school and was bullied all the time. I blamed the bullying for my lack of focus in school. I spent every waking moment, worrying about being messed with. I was (shoved, tripped, having my books thrown on the ground, called names). I was the smallest kid, too. I overcame it all, too. And also graduated with Honors.

when he says he reads slower than other people but he retains and understands scripts better than others it gave me an enlightenment. I'm also a slow reader but I'm like him. Thank you Mr.Spielberg! I feel more confident after watching this interview :)

My 10 year old is profoundly dyslexic and bullied I'm going to let him see this, he loves your work and will be proud to be similar to you!

[nikibass]

Wow... I don't know why but this brings me to tears. I feel this. No wonder I love his movies so much. Thank you so much for sharing even though this was 10yrs ago! 🥰

I am thinking of becoming a reading specialist. This inspires me to help those with certain conditions. Steven Spielberg is brilliant and glad he found about his dyslexia and bringing light to the issue.

I am constantly amazed at how many people have dyslexia. I am 63 years old, at school i was called lazy, stupid and a dunch . All of them made me feel different and alone . Yes i had lots friends, but i was sent to a special school at 11 years old . I hated being cent away from my friend's . I felt lost for a while, but i made new fiends there . To be honest i feel that the dyslexia made me more determined to learn . My talent was that i was good at art and fixing things . ❤

I was diagnosed at 21 and it was life changing knowing that my challenges weren’t my fault.

Hey Quinn, next time when you are interviewing someone, pls ask about how to deal dyslexia as adults. We usually go bk to the childhood and the problems then but hardly someone discusses dealing with it as adults. Thanks.

I'm 52 and live in California Only went to school 247 days of my life and I am needing to be properly tested ..but I'm sure 100% that I suffer from this ..and it answers so much for me .

Awesome interview. Spielberg is such a down to earth guy.

[christineblumke]

Thank you. His story is similar to my story. I only found out 5 years ago. I went to school in the 70's. Finding out I an Dyslexic is piece to my puzzle.
Nobody picked it up at school. My school life makes sense now...🇭🇲 So happy ❤️

[graveyardshiftfilms]

Just when you thought This man can't get any more inspirational...well, He does. Amazing.

[Carousel]

I'm so in love with him to the highest.hes just so magical and brilliant.

[DCL]

Why do I feel more at ease now since Steven Speilberg had learning disabilities and insecurities as a child, and later. Thank you for sharing with others, Mr Speilberg. Nice interview and the interviewer is allowing him to talk. Good questions too! 😊

[mrscrocks]

Great point made at 7:46 .... he might read slowly but because of that he has great understanding of what he is reading and really takes it in.

[caroleastmond]

It wasn't until
the 1980s, that
more books, came
out about dyslexia,
very good interview.

This is a great video. I’m almost 40 and was diagnosed as dyslexic at school. Dyslexia is who I am. But as a adult I have tried desperately not to be dyslexic - did those jobs dyslexics find ten times worse than those non-dyslexics, but always brought something different and everyone else. That is why I stay employed, not my ability to read, spell or write quickly. The more amazing people like Steven talk about being dyslexic, the battle and the gift, the better it will be for all of us similarly different people, including those who are still trying to understand how and why they are different. A great great video, thanks for uploading.
