» Alex Jeffreys And Why I Believe He Is A Great Role Model For Dyslexics Everywhere jeansmenopausalmoment.com: New Beginnings At Mid Life

Here's my absolute favourite company - GVO - hosting with a difference!

If you’ve watched the video Testimonial I made for Alex Jeffreys you’ll know the thing I like most about him is the fact he’s most likely an undiagnosed dyslexic.

For me, he symbolises hope for everyone with any kind of learning disability. He is proof if ever any were needed, a person’s value and intelligence is not determined by whether they can read, write or spell.

(That said, I’m sorry Alex, and I know I promised I wouldn’t do this, but when you picture yourself with the Gurus in Newbies Nightmare you really should spell their names correctly i.e. John Reese)

Anyway, yesterday in UK, Education Secretary Ed Balls, pledged Â£10 million for extra help for children with dyslexia and literacy difficulties. Apparently it’s to fund specialist dyslexia teaching training for 4,000 teachers over the next two years – one for every local group of schools.

It’s good news. At least it means dyslexia is finally being recognised, but I’m sure there will still be students whose problems will remain undiagnosed. They’ll either go off the tracks, be bullied or lose all self confidence, and when they leave school they’ll probably not bother to try to “learn” anything ever again.

That’s a shame for we can all just grow old. It’s nice to grow wise too and that’s just what Alex Jeffreys has done.

I once asked him if he’d been bullied at school but he said he hadn’t. He thought it was because he was small for his age, cheeky and a bit naughty so he got away with it.

Nothing’s changed then!

But seriously, in the short time I’ve known Alex, I’ve watched him evolve into a real leader, at least in the Internet Marketing arena. He’s been an active student, had some great teachers, and is now passing on his knowledge in his own unique style.

Unfortunately, Internet Marketing’s not a subject taught in schools. It should be as given the right instruction, it’s something the majority of today’s youth would take to like a duck to water.

Our younger generation spend more time on social network sites than they do socialising in the real world. It’s sad but true. However, it also provides the perfect foundation for a profitable and rewarding life on the Internet, even for those with dyslexia and language difficulties.

We all know time doesn’t stand still, and neither does the internet. It’s continually evolving and the way forward is definitely video and audio. You need to be authentic, so people get to know, like and trust YOU. It’s a matter of being yourself and video doesn’t have to require written language skills.

Of course, the better your communication skills, the more opportunities you have, but there are ways around everything. Many of the top “Gurus” simply dictate their work and someone else types it up for them. Spelling isn’t an issue.

However, don’t misunderstand here. I’m not saying language skills aren’t important and you should always try to improve, BUT the worth of a person is not determined by his or her ability to read, write or spell.

Personally, I think every high school student should be forced to learn about Alex Jeffreys and read Newbies Nightmare even if they don’t understand it. The underlying message is, your success or failure in life is determined by your mindset and the only constraints you have are those you impose upon yourself.

So to all dyslexics, learning and literate disabled people out there – Believe In Yourself and Good Luck!
