Einstein’s Learning Disability
Many organizations that promote the interests of individuals with learning disabilities claim that Albert Einstein had a learning disability, and this claim has become widely accepted.
It is interesting to note that a review of biographical sources, however, provides little or no evidence to support this assertion.
According to LD lore Einstein failed to talk until the age of four, the result of a language disability. It is also claimed that Einstein could not read until the age of nine. To strengthen their case LD proponents point to such facts that Einstein failed his first attempt at entrance into college and lost three teaching positions in two years.

Education, The Opportunities Available
In our country, education can be taken for granted. The early years are spent learning the basics of reading, writing, and math. But, when we get to high school and then to college, we begin to transform the education we get into what we find interesting and unique. Education should never stop, though. To keep it going throughout our lives, we can get education in any number of ways. Sure, you can always go back to school in a traditional setting, but you can also take classes online. The internet is a powerful education tool.
Online, you can learn anything you can dream of learning. Some online education is even free. Some colleges have developed courses that can be completed online, from the comfort of your own home. You can simply check in at the college for the final exam. To take this one step farther, you can get your education online from the start. You’ll find universities online that offer entire degree programs for you and your family. While not every major can be obtained this way, many can.
