Mar 26, 2023

Keisha Adair Swaby is the author of the book “Empowering Dyslexics - Blessed and Gifted” a powerful book written by Keisha, a Jamaican immigrant who arrived in the UK at the tender age of 14. Keisha shares her empowering lived experiences of growing up with undiagnosed dyslexia and dyspraxia whilst facing several intersectional challenges that included culture, race, and the UK education system.

 

Keisha's story is a powerful reminder of the struggles faced by individuals with learning differences, particularly those from marginalized communities. She recounts the bullying she faced in school for being different, which affected her self-esteem and confidence growing up. However, through her resilience and determination, Keisha was able to overcome these challenges and pursue her dreams and goals.

 

In Empowering Dyslexics Keisha provides an intimate and honest account of her journey, highlighting the importance of understanding and supporting individuals with learning differences. Her story is not only inspiring but also informative, as she highlights the often overlooked challenges that individuals with learning differences face in their lives and the need for better understanding, more awareness and acceptance in society.

 

Keisha launched Empowering Dyslexics to inspire and be an example to others that they too can achieve anything her motto is "If I CAN do it so CAN you.”
