Martin is a dyslexic designer, TEDx speaker, and founder of the special font for people with dyslexia, Dysfont, that’s used by Promova. His mission is to raise awareness about design for people with dyslexia and visual stress and reduce the impact learning disorders have on people’s lives. In 2014, with the intention to help people overcome their reading difficulties, Martin created a unique typeface called Dysfont. It addresses the main challenges people with dyslexia or/and visual stress face, including letter switching, letter reversals, and text instability (blurring, black dots, swirling, flickering, etc.). Recently, he launched the first version of Dysfont Pro, an upgraded version for non-profit and commercial use. Understanding the importance of learning foreign languages in the modern world and the struggles that dyslexics face in the process of learning, Martin decided to collaborate with Promova. The creation of Dyslexic Mode along with using Dysfont on the platform is meant to ease language learning for people with dyslexia and visual stress.
