  • Just to clarify - Winston Churchill was British, not German. Also, didn't Pasteur pasteurize milk? I think he may been confused with Alexander Fleming, who discovered penicillin, or maybe even Felix Hoffmann, who created aspirin?

  • I have low IQ, is there any course that I can take or any schools that I can attend to help me learn easier and organize better? If anyone know, please let me know.

  • all the people that had learning difficulties were guys it would be good if you could find some girls would help me a lot with my confidence

  • Visual attention, how it works, what happens when it fails, and how it leads to dyslexia, attention deficit, and learning disorders: search "dr. laurie cestnick" and "harvard university" or "dyslexia" for a VIDEO. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

  • How visual attention works, fails, and leads to dyslexia (and what to do about it!)

    SEARCH "Dr. Laurie Cestnick" "Harvard University" or "Cestnick" "Dyslexia" on YOUTUBE for video. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

  • yes! we know a lot about Einstein being dyslexic. check out dislecksia: the movie.

  • I have difficulty learning but I don't know if that's the same as having learning difficulties. Whenever I want to learn something it doesn't go in and I have a really hard time listening to people and paying attention to the things they are saying. I thought it was something I was going to grow out of but I'm approaching 30 now and it's still as bad as ever.

  • @1982CFD I'll be 46 in June;we'll never out grow it.

  • Comment removed

  • I'm not so sure about picasso, or edison for that matter, making the world a better place.

    about 90% of the inventions edison took credit for were other peoples, beside making the first phonograph, and a shitty one at that. he's prolly the most overated inventer in history. he should be seen more as a tyrannical business man than an intellect.

    and piccaso? there's a million things worse about this dude than just being the most completely over rated person in history ever.

  • What do you dislike about Picasso?

  • @1982CFD he was a narcissist, and just seems like a terrible person on almost every account of people in his personal life. (just google "picasso" and narcissism" and i sure something will come up)

    as for his art, i may have been speaking out of my league, my thing is biographies, not art criticism, and although art is widely believed to be mostly arbitrary, most art critics will agree if he's is if not "the most", he is at least one of the greatest over rated painters of all time.

  • Find out what your weaknesses are effecting your disability. Do you suffer with short term memory, reading, writing, etc. Do not dwell on negatives and try and think positive about what you are good at. If you are poor at remembering things and struggle with note taking try taking a dictaphone in to class. Experiment with different font sizes and coloured paper. Try mind mapping instead of writing loads of notes. There are many strategies to help with learning, find what works for you.

  • Somebody tell me what do you do when you excel at one part of an area and are deficient in another? I couldn't pass the math in school, the GED or any test to be a nurse and am now afraid of taking an online test to be a teacher's aide. Schools and etc. DO NOT ACCEPT YOU unless you PASS EVERYTHING!!!

  • @georgieonmymindgreat. these people made their own logic that WE learn today. Many of them had Autism like in my video "Famous people with Autism" You know, Bill Gates dropped out of harvard on what he called a "little business idea." lol

  • Great video! If you would like to hear some really good information about learning disabilities, take a look at my channel. I have and LD and was able to get a degree in mathematics. I am also poet and playwright. - LeDerick Horne

  • awesome video!!! thanks man it has given me lots of courage!!!

  • Didn't Mozart compose his first music piece at age 5 or something? I guess he had other learning disabilities.

  • check out my "Famous ADD/ADHDers" video.

  • You forgot Shakespeare & Mark Twain.

  • Check the video" ask me about dyslexia"

  • Check the video" ask me about dyslexia"

  • The people who regard you as 'imbiciles' are the true imbilciles for their lack of understanding of the challenges you face in this life and I for one being a support worker for learning difficulties have seen amazing things from the people I have cared for and have been blown away but what they achieve!

  • Math, reading ,spelling sucked for me too, the only thing that made sense was biology the symbols made sense as well as formulas why was that? Drawing and history also my best subjects.

  • I am extremly dyslecix and dyscalculus. I know what it is like to have people make fun of you because of that. Thank god I am home schooled, so I don't get as much as I would propaly get in school, but I still get it. One thing I have learned is that some people make fun because I can use a spell checker in test and get more time to do in class assinments, so they are jelous. But it is still hard. Thanks for posting this vedio to help people know about us and stuff! <3

  • I have severe ADHD and dylexia - I was always judged as a retard (and still am sometimes) even my mother thought id grow up mentally deficient. I never understood my lessons I never done my homework - and I still have sometimes trouble understanding what people say to me (Really bad concentration)

    But I know I have a vast imagination, ambition and IQ of 155 (& im going to Uni) So I say it to everyone with problems- be ambitious, people change & don't see things as black and white+ ur not alone

  • Good luck coping with the rest of your life, if anyone calls you annoying names just for something you can't help, then they truly are ignorant pigs who think they get a good life out of making others' lives bad.

  • @MGX890 me too! exactly the same way. never did homeworks, got abuses & beatings from teachers. everybody thought i was hopeless & doubted if i could go to high school. to my own surprise i did very well. graduated from top schools in the world - iit bombay & stanford. next i wanna be the dyslexic billionaire.

  • i have dylexia i study a art but then i sent of the corse because i had to do a 10`000 word easa.witch was inposible in those days.i had to write about picaso but they did`nt like what i wrote becose they never understood it.

  • I have ADHD, and while I do horribly in school I ended up a preofessional pastel artist at the age of 14. Yet, somehow, I let it get to me and ended up with Clinical depression. When I was only 12 or 13, and didnt get better till I was 15. But now, I just tell those teachers who say I'll never be in college to piss off. I can do it, I know I can!

  • how's school?

  • BAD, I cant seem to get anyting there. But my art makes up for it.

  • i hated school especialy math. had to rwetake one class 3 times

  • Math... lol saaame. the only way I passed is because of this aesome teacher I had that helped me on the tests and the special classes they put me in (the classes with double the time).

  • I suck at math. i pasted because my teacher was tired of me. had her twice and the other math teacher once for algebra 1 x

  • I have dyslexia and so do my mom, dad, two sisters and my brother. Very hard....especially for my brother that has problems and let people get to him. He had the worst out of all of us. I had really bad hearing since I was young and learned how to talk when I was around 5 years old. I am proud of who I am, but I wish that some people can respect us and should learn a little more about dyslexia and how has/had dyslexia.

  • Hi ya

    Im an Aspie, I made a video a couple of days ago, posted it and then found yours.

    It was very similar to yours,the style music etc- a bit uncanny actually, we may think very alike.Scary!

    P.S liked your vid better!

  • Thank you

  • I have add, and need to get evaluated to see if I have autism,ocd, and dyslexia.

    See my John Lennon Autism video

  • Im ADHD And asperger syndrom

  • I have ADHD

  • Most of these people had autism or Asperger's syndrome. Neither of these could be classed as a learning disability given the effects that they had on the person suffering from them. They are social disorders really-someone like Newton had vast intelligence when it came to Maths, but had little social intelligence. The same is true for Einstein, van Gogh, Beethoven, Gates and Hitchcock.

  • How do you know that all of these peolple had learning difficultys???

    Please answer

  • They all had traites of learning disorders or were diognosed - some found social awareness difficult, others such as Einstein performed poorly at school and struggled in tests but who could argue he was unintelligent

  • I have Dyslexia, and good for you. Your message is very true. Dyslexia is hard to live with, but I would not change me for the world.

  • did the person making this have learning disability,

    or just misinformed?

  • quite a few of these people were learning disabled--i'm not sure about a couple of others, but this is a wonderful and informative video!

  • not misinformed, most of these people had a LD or social problems. BTW are you assuming that anyone who makes a "misinformed" video automaticully has a LD? I'm a NVLD and proud of it

  • Autism isn't a learning difficulty but nonetheless, very good video.

  • great video

  • Yea and if all those people were grew up in the modern education system were placed on mind altering drugs and forced to conform to the "standard", it's doubtful they would have accomplished anything.

  • I really anjoyed that video, thanks!
