real problem with reading and I don't know if you've been diagnosed

with Dyslexia

I was. When I was six, um,

They found I couldn't read at all and so I was diagnosed with Dyslexia at about six and a half or something

but you don't get a statement when you are six, they kind of wait

so um, I had asked for an agent when I was three and

and my mom said, "no. Absolutely not" and finally

she said. "ok, if you work with me every single day for the summer holiday and come to me with a

with a smile on your face I will at the end of it, get you an agent.

From then on, as long as I kept my grades up

Then I was allowed to work during the Summer Holiday. So the acting was really

like my carrot. Do well at school

So by the time I was 11, I had a lot of help from my parents, amazing teachers and great tutors as well

i pretty much have overcome it.

and its not a problem now

Why is it important

do you really need to get inside her? I just enjoy it.

I think many people do it in many different ways. I just think it it was based on such a

wonderful biography by Amanda Foreman, such a beautifully written book that

it sort of you know

it's wonderful to be able to have that much background knowledge to be able to

come to pick parts of her actual life and i think that's really help them we can use this and we can use that

I find that really helpful.
