In this installment of our Dyslexic Voices series, Cliff Weitzman, founder and CEO of Speechify (https://speechify.com/), tells us about his experiences growing up dyslexic, and shares his advice for how to succeed as a dyslexic child and adult.
Here is his bio:
Cliff Weitzman is super dyslexic and couldn't figure out how to read in 1st to 4th grade. He learned English by listening to Harry Potter audiobooks when he was 13 and fell in love with listening. He listens to 2 audiobooks a week and has done so for more than 15 years. When he studied renewable energy engineering at Brown University he found his books didn't have audiobooks so he built a text to speech system that could read out anything to him.
