After being diagnosed with the learning disability when he was 7 years old, Tom tells Spain’s XL Semanal magazine that he was often “anxious, frustrated and bored” as a youth and couldn’t concentrate in class.
The 46-year-old actor goes on to say that he was functionally illiterate when he graduated from school in 1980, but learned to read perfectly as an adult through Scientology technology.
It should be noted that Tom requested that a transcript of his original comments in English be made not made available.

He is so damn weird sometimes.
Why must I know this? And what Scienotology technology was he using to learn to read?
Books?
Now that is revolutionary!!!!!
He’s full of crap.
this is an old interview they’ve revamped.
As Sheri says “He’s full of crap”…..
He can also thank his EX WIFE MIMI ROGERS… BUT no one can mention his ex wives in his publicity..
Just Katie of course… Yes he was a young man when he met his first wife..
maybe it can help him over come conceit too ?
He scares me.
mimi said really harsh things about him when they broke up - no need for him to be thanking her
