When he was young, he fought with dyslexia and was unable to read correctly. His parents’ solution was to hire a reading coach to help him through the difficulties. By working hard to improve his reading ability, he achieved good results in school and studied Vietnamese at the University of Hanoi in Vietnam.
Yes, he can also speak Vietnamese fluently. Later, Anderson graduated from Yale University with a bachelor of arts degree in political science. The fact is that since dyslexia is not easy, he could have given up at a young age. Instead, he is now the inspiration for others who are experiencing similar struggles.
