Does Your Brain Process Language Differently? | April McMurtrey | TEDxEustis
Roughly 20% of readers process written language in a uniquely different way, leading to difficulties in school and life. Reading educator April McMurtrey shares the incredible reactions of her students when they find out their difficulties reading are not deficiencies and that there are techniques to unlock the world of words they’ve struggled with. April McMurtrey is the developer of the Learn Reading program, a reading curriculum designed for struggling and dyslexic learners. As a professional reading and dyslexia specialist, April has helped thousands of students break through their reading barriers and unlock the world of words. Her desire is for struggling readers of all ages to have access to quality reading instruction that will change lives and strengthen generations.
