This feels like I'm reading the story of my life. So, I am not deliberately being lazy or simply the "absent minded professor." A very informative book, but unfortunately, most of the services etc. the author describes are only available in the United Kingdom. A great source of information and somewhat of a reaffirmation that I just am a bit different, and that I don't deliberately cause chaos.

The questionnaire from p. 145-160 is excellent. It will really show if there is a chance that you might have dyspraxia. For me, it certainly answered many questions (and made me realise that I am not simply deliberately chaotic, lazy, and stupid, I don't deliberately try to embarrass either myself or my friends and family, so they should understand that, but they will likely never do that). Oh well ...

I wish that I had had some of these suggestions about "studying with dyspraxia" when I was attending university. But, I have one question which the author does not really answer, what are her suggestions if the instructor himself/herself is dyspraxic (unorganised, bad handwriting, board-writing etc.). I also wonder if the many handouts etc. that I tend to give to my students reflect my own disorganisation (oops).

Lots of advice, some of it a bit too much detail and information though (but will likely come in handy sometime). What I really like, are the suggestions for further reading and informative websites (and, that they are included in the chapters of relevance and not just tacked on at the end). Makes the whole reading experience much more informative.
