Boelo van der Pool, an ESL Professional who focuses on raising Dyslexia awareness among language teachers joins us on today's show. 

A native of the Netherlands, Van der Pool is no stranger to learning other languages himself, having lived in Asia, the UK, and now Spain since 1994. He is an active speaker, teacher trainer and former language school owner as well as a certified coach and a member of the board of the International Language Coaching Association.

Boelo opens up about Dyslexia and ADHD, and both their prevalence in and their impact on language learning. As a person with Dyslexia, Boelo is unabashedly optimistic in his approach and convinced that we can do more and better to help learners like him progress in language learning.

Boelo offers a deeper understanding of the dyslexic or ADHD experience and insights which ultimately helps us more effectively recognize and support our neurodivergent learners.
