Russell Van Brocklin
Russell Van Brocklin, known as The Dyslexia Professor, is a dyslexia researcher supported by New York State Senate funding and an advocate for practical, evidence based literacy intervention.
Dyslexia affects an estimated 15 to 20% of learners, yet many families are still told to “wait and see.” Russell challenges that approach by translating structured literacy methods proven to be effective for struggling readers into clear, actionable steps parents can use immediately.
His work focuses on why multisensory routines outperform generic worksheets, how early and intentional intervention changes long term outcomes, and how simplifying complex systems helps both children and adults make progress faster.
While his primary expertise is literacy, Russell also applies these same communication principles to relationships, emotional expression, and intimacy.
