Helping Dyslexic Students Thrive in Classical Schools with Rebecca Dornbush


Listen Later

In this episode, we’re tackling a topic that affects more families than you might expect—dyslexia—and how classical Christian schools can not only accommodate but help students thrive.

Our guest, Rebecca Dornbusch, is a reading specialist and devoted mom who’s on a mission to help dyslexic students become “victorious readers.” She brings both professional insight and a deep, faith-filled perspective, reminding us that this challenge isn’t the end—it’s a beginning.

Rebecca explains:
🔹 What dyslexia really is—and what it isn’t
🔹 How classical education and dyslexia aren’t at odds
🔹 The power of early intervention (and how spelling can be a clue)
🔹 Why parents shouldn’t fear the label—and where to find support
🔹 What schools and families can do together to help students succeed

Whether you’re a teacher, parent, or school leader, this conversation is filled with hope, practical tools, and biblical encouragement. Dyslexic students don’t just survive in classical schools—they can flourish.

🎧 Tune in for a conversation that will change how you see learning differences—and give you the confidence to support every child in your care.
