ABOUT

DYLAN SMITH

SPEAKER : MOTIVATOR : EDUCATOR

In 2020, at the age 20, Dylan Smith formed a company called D is for Dyslexia. Despite working a full-time job that requires countless hours and extensive time on the road, he felt the need to share his story: his struggles, his worries, his perseverance, and ultimately his successes.

His goal? To impact, inspire, motivate, educate, and bring awareness to the challenges that kids with dyslexia face.

How? By making podcasts and using other social media outlets, speaking at business conferences, and talking to kids, parents, and educators.

Why? Dylan hopes that by sharing his story, friends, educators, and the whole community can become more aware of the life of a child with dyslexia to help these kids succeed.

With my story – first being misdiagnosed, overcoming my struggles and
disadvantages, and finally graduating with my class – I now want to create
change, bring awareness and reshape the way people look at dyslexia.

TESTIMONIALS.

Dylan is changing the way educators view dyslexia, motivating and inspiring kids with dyslexia, and teaching others understanding and tolerance to these students.
Hard to get a group of middle school kids to stay that engaged and say that guy was awesome! They also expressed wanting to help their friends who were dyslexic because they didn’t know how hard it was for them.
I was blown away by Dylan, as were the other parents and staff members that heard him speak! 
Love it!! My kids came back today raving about Dylan. They didn’t know their friends struggled so much and want to help!
That was so interesting and such good information! Thanks for setting that up. I’m so glad he is speaking to the kids today!
I wanted to let you know that my daughter enjoyed the talk on Friday and it could not have come at a better time for us. She has her evaluation tomorrow. Thank you for being so proactive for all of us!  I wish I could have come and listened.
Two of the reading specialist immediately went to our principal and said, every teacher needs to hear this message and we need to show the recording it at a professional development meeting and have the teachers discuss! 
Loved listening to Dylan. Reminded me of Michael’s struggles. YES, I cried a little bit too. Our boys are in a good place!
Thanks so much for today! It was great! Today makes me want to have more opportunities for parents to get together and talk. Loved hearing Dylan’s journey – so powerful.
That was so interesting and such good information! Thanks for setting that up. I’m so glad he is speaking to the kids today!
Every teacher needs to hear this message. We need to show the recording at a professional development meeting and have the teachers discuss.
Dylan is one of a kind. I feel like there’s so much to life when I’m around him and it seems like he inspires me every time we talk. I believe he will impact thousands and thousands of lives throughout his life.
