In this episode of Your Message Received, host John Duffin sits down with Russell Van Brocklen, known as the "Dyslexia Professor," to discuss his revolutionary methods for helping individuals with dyslexia improve their reading and writing skills.
Russell shares his personal journey of overcoming dyslexia, his experiences in law school, and his groundbreaking research, which was funded by the New York State Education Department. By the way, if you're a football historian or a Philadelphia Eagles fan (Go Birds), you may recognize Russell's last name-there is a connection.
Parents will find valuable insights on identifying early signs of dyslexia and effective techniques to support their children's literacy. Tune in to hear how Russell's strategies have transformed the lives of many dyslexic students, making advanced reading and writing skills achievable.
I've always viewed dyslexia as a puzzle (here's a heads-up that I am not very good at solving puzzles.) I especially loved learning some of Russell's systems, which take the mystery out of it. I am excited to get to share this episode.
