Our story

A deeply personal project

Hi there! My name is Margarita Pennock, and I am the founder of Yesdyslexia. This project holds a deeply personal significance for me.

The idea of creating a comprehensive resource that gathers global information on dyslexia came to me while my family and I were living in Chisinau, Moldova. Despite our love for Moldova, we encountered a lack of understanding and support for dyslexic individuals.

When our dyslexic daughter started school, it became evident that teachers lacked knowledge on how to effectively work with dyslexic children. Determined to ensure that she wouldn't develop negative beliefs about her intelligence, we provided as much support as possible during those early years.

Unfortunately, our school lacked the necessary resources for dyslexic students, leading me to realise that our situation was not unique.

There are millions of families with dyslexic children who lack knowledge about the condition and how to assist their kids. Margarita Pennock, Founder
