#177: Dyslexia, Resilience and Self-discovery with Jill Cameron

In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Jo Lee speak with Jill Cameron in rural Victoria, Australia, an early years educator, mum of three, and teacher trainee who was diagnosed with dyslexia about 18 months ago after her son Mitchell was diagnosed. Jill describes the relief of understanding her difficulties, especially very low working memory affecting reading, speaking, and writing, and shares how supportive family accommodations helped her growing up on a sheep farm. She discusses school experiences including refusing spelling tests, volunteering to read aloud, reading recovery, and being labeled “phonetically deaf.” Jill explains practical study strategies and accommodations for online university, including transcripts, scripting for video assignments, two screens, color-coded organization, OneNote, browser workspaces, and using AI to create questions and assignment blueprints.
