Hi, Jen. Your boyfriend sounds like a great guy with lots of potential. He is only 25 and has people working under him. He has leadership qualities. Unfortunately he sounds like he is in denial. For him to feel good about himself, he must accept his dyslexia but also understand that he is smart not stupid. In fact, there is a book called Smart But Feeling Dumb by Dr. Harold Levinson. I read his book and found myself in so many of his examples of people with dyslexia. I have another article that you would enjoy reading. Go to a search engine like google and type: Successful careers: The secrets of Adults with Dyslexia by Rosaline P. Fink. Also type in Ben Foss and intel. Ben is a dyslexic who works at intel. He and his colleagues at Intel designed a digital camera that reads words. It is like a Sony reader. Ben gives a demonstration on how the camera works. I am going to write to you again. Bye for now.
