According to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO, n.d.), an estimated 10% of the world's population is affected by dyslexia, which means that approximately 700 million people suffer from dyslexia. Dyslexia was discovered in 1881 by a man called Oswald Berkhan. The researcher developed a theory to explain the causes of dyslexia. They found that the language processing areas in the brains of dyslexic subjects are more equivalent on both sides, while non-dyslexic people have a larger language processing area on the left side of the mind. As a result, dyslexic people need more time to learn things. Although dyslexic people suffer from difficulties, but they are very intelligent. For example, Albert Einstein is the most incredible man of his century. Albert suffered from dyslexia because he has a terrible memory and cannot memorize even small things like dates. The most amazing thing is that Albert can tackle some of the most intricate scientific equations and formulas without any inconvenience. Albert may never have studied how to legitimately tie shoelaces, yet his deductive commitments and theory still have an important impact today (Disabled World, 2008). However, a survey conducted by the Kuwait Dyslexia Association shows that 6.3% of students attending primary school in Kuwait suffer from dyslexia. According to (Aladwani, n.d.) Kuwaiti educators, as well as in other countries, are aware of this problem. But lack of time and being chased with daily school schedules prevent them from not helping dyslexic children, so Kuwait Ministry of Education (MOE) should provide special school for dyslexic children because they have poor language skills such as reading, write, speak, and am emotionally sensitive.
