Episode 12: Getting a Read on Dyslexia

In this episode we hear three stories of people with dyslexia who overcame their struggles through explicit reading instruction, their own hard work, and the powerful advocacy of parents and allies at school. Host John O’Connor interviews Dr. Shawn Robinson, who graduated high school with a 3rd grade reading level and is now on the faculty at Madison College, and Josh Stoller is an electrical engineer in Massachusetts. We also hear a personal essay from English teacher Sarah Gompers, who is also the mother of a 12 year old son with dyslexia.
