Jessica Okoro, founder of BeScience STEM spoke at TEDx Leicester, where she shared about her experience as a student and the challenges and limitations she was confronted with.Jessica stood against the odds and defied not only her teacher’s remarks which clearly stated, that maybe Science was not for her, but also her history with dyslexia. She was challenged to create her own means of studying Science and Maths subjects in Secondary school.
