RIFFIT

  Dyslexia is one of the most misunderstood neurological conditions to exist. Today, scientists know more than ever about dyslexia. But dyslexic people around the globe continue to be marginalized and stereotyped.  Unfortunately, many misconceptions are floating around about this learning difference that it often gets hard to differentiate facts from lies. And this isn't just detrimental to a diagnosed dyslexic person's experience. Still, it also makes it hard to read the early signs of dyslexia and seek immediate help.  Today we're going to shine a light on some of the most prevalent myths on dyslexia.  Globally, 15-20% of people are dyslexic, according to the International Dyslexia Foundation. Thus, it's crucial to educate ourselves on the topic.

  RIFFIT was brought into this world with the vision to change the lives of dyslexic minds forever - one song at a time. And it's been doing precisely that. Helping young minds without any boundaries - physical or financial - unleash the true potential of their mind that's long been chained by the limitations of our mainstream educational systems. Last month, we put our RIFFIT app to the test.  Ms. Lisa Hecker, a speech-language pathologist from New York, analyzed and scrutinized to find out whether RIFFIT is truly as remarkable and groundbreaking as it claims or is it just another marketing gimmick exploiting neurodiversity for private gains. Ms. Hecker used RIFFIT with her dyslexic young clients, and she has quite a lot to share with you guys. But first, let me properly introduce you to Ms. Hecker.  Ms. Hecker is a speech and language pathologist who assesses and treats clients with language delays, hearing loss, neurologic injury, auditory processing diso...

  The talent shortage is at a 15-year high. And employers are struggling to recruit the right skills they need for the post-pandemic. Reports show that seven in 10 employers across the world are experiencing difficulty hiring - the highest it has been at any point since 2006.  However, every dark cloud has a silver lining. And in this case, the silver lining has been the unprecedented talent represented by dyslexic people. Many employers are undervaluing a colossal pool of talent: people with dyslexia.  Now and then, the narrative around dyslexia has been positioned as baggage to businesses. For decades, dyslexic people have been expected to just shrug it off and ‘ fit in’ - measured, benchmarked, and often ridiculed.  But not anymore. Dyslexic thinking and aptitudes represent ‘in demand’ skills, with the opportunity to change the face of the workforce as we see.  Dyslexia And Post-pandemic Workforce  It’s been forecasted that by the year 2025, humans and m...

  We live in a world where millions of people fail in their educational activities, largely due to current ‘one size fits all’ methods of learning and communication. RIFFIT provides a game-changing answer to this problem by using a combination of melody and automated text reading to let you “read with your ears”.  About one in five of us have a lot of difficulty learning to read and are diagnosed with dyslexia. This population generally suffers educationally and is often being left behind from the first grade onwards. It is not surprising that a large proportion of this group drops out of school altogether, but dyslexia is not an indication of low intelligence (Einstein and Walt Disney both struggled with dyslexia). It is an inherited condition which only means that learning to read, spell words, speak and comprehend spoken words is very challenging.  The socioeconomic impact of dyslexia is enormous. According to  National Assessment of Educational Progres...
