Inside the Reading Brain: A Neuropsychologist’s Guide to Dyslexia and Effective Intervention
May 14, 2026
Brightmont Academy Speaker Series
In this session of the Brightmont Academy Speaker Series, we're joined by Dr. Elizabeth Adams, a board-certified neuropsychologist, for a conversation that blends neuroscience and practical guidance to help families better understand reading challenges.
Dr. Adams offers parents and educators a clear look at how the brain learns to read — and why that process unfolds differently for students with dyslexia.
In this session, Dr. Adams discusses:
- How the brain learns to read and why it differs for students with dyslexia
- Common dyslexia-related struggles families experience
- The roadblocks behind fluency and spelling challenges
- How structured literacy approaches support reading development
- Practical strategies for home and school
At Brightmont Academy, we believe supporting the whole child includes helping families feel informed and confident throughout their educational journey. Our personalized, one-to-one instruction can be a meaningful option for students who need a more individualized approach.
