We also discuss the role of self-efficacy and how teacher mindset can influence student outcomes. Practical examples, toolkits, and case studies included.

Understanding and Supporting Students with Dyslexia
Dyslexia is the most common form of neurodivergence, yet many educators feel unsure about how to support it. In this episode, we explore what dyslexia really is, how it affects learning, and how teachers can make a meaningful difference through early intervention and inclusive strategies. We also reflect on the emotional impact of dyslexia and the strengths these students bring to the classroom.
