John,
While I'm not dyslexic myself, I have great sympathy for the challenges and frustrations you must experience. The fact that you are learning a foreign language and have gotten this far is testimony to your dedication. Bravo to you!
Just so you know, everyone (at some point in their Fluenz learning) has the issue with the speakers talking too fast. You might think, Why don't they just slow it down? The answer is that what's too fast for some people is just right for others and agonizingly slow for the really lucky ones. Having said that, maybe the best reason for them speaking as fast as they do is because that's what you're likely to hear when you get to a Spanish-speaking country. Just keep going over and over it. You'll start to pick out words that just seemed to be a blur previously.
Good luck. I wish you the best.
