Bilingual education does more than teach two languages; it has the potential to help dyslexic students unlock cognitive and linguistic skills that traditional monolingual approaches might overlook. Join Dr. Ioulia Kovelman and CORE Learning’s Maya Goodall for a discussion on the transformative impact of bilingualism on dyslexic learners along with practical insights from research that improves literacy instruction for all learners.

In this second session of CORE Learning’s Structured Literacy and Language Diversity Week: Spring ’24 Series, you learn about:

• Cross-linguistic benefits: Learn how bilingual children with dyslexia use their first language to boost literacy in a second language for improved academic performance
• Neurological insights: Discover how bilingualism reshapes the brain’s reading circuits and provides unique tools for managing dyslexia
• Metalinguistic skills: Find out how bilingual education enhances cognitive flexibility, essential for reading mastery in any language
• Evidence-based practices: Gain practical, research-backed methods to enhance learning outcomes across diverse educational settings

This edWeb podcast is part of our ongoing effort to challenge educational norms and create more inclusive classrooms for all learners. Listen today to join the movement towards a more nuanced understanding of bilingual and dyslexic education. This edWeb podcast is of interest to PreK-12 teachers, school leaders, and district leaders.
