Did you know 15 to 20% of the population has dyslexia, yet most schools are still failing these students? In this episode of the Elevate Media Podcast, host Chris Anderson sits down with Russell Van Brocklen, a dyslexia educator and researcher with over a decade of experience helping students overcome learning differences through a brain-based approach rooted in Yale research.

Russell breaks down exactly why the traditional school system is built for a brain that dyslexic students simply don't have and what to do instead. He walks through his step-by-step writing method that can take a child writing random, misspelled words to producing well-structured sentences with correct grammar in a single session. He also shares how he's helping students with dyslexia, ADD, and ADHD find their "specialty" (their narrow area of deep interest) and use it as the engine for advanced academic achievement, including peer-reviewed research and AI-era career readiness.

Whether your child is struggling in school, you suspect dyslexia in yourself, or you're just fascinated by how different brains learn, this episode will change the way you think about intelligence, education, and potential.
