After doing the simulations, I was honestly wiped out. My brain hurt from having to work so hard just to get through the tasks. But that’s what made it so eye-opening. It gave me a real sense of how exhausting and frustrating it must feel for a student with dyslexia every single day. I felt overwhelmed, and that was just a small taste of what they experience all the time. It really hit me emotionally. I think every teacher should go through something like this. It helped me understand my students on a much deeper level, and I’ll carry that with me moving forward.
