%X Sa£¿etak This longitudinal case study (two years and seven months) that involved two learners with dyslexia of different ages aimed to investigate the benefit of the Multisensory Structured Learning (MSL) approach in vocabulary learning in English as a foreign language (EFL). The results showed that MSL is an approach that could improve vocabulary learning in a foreign language (FL) in learners with dyslexia of different ages. However, age is a salient factor. The results corroborate previous findings on the effect of MSL and add to the literature in the field with new findings on the impact of the age factor. The pedagogical implications of the study stress the importance of incorporating a structured, explicit, and multisensory approach into a regular classroom to help learners with dyslexia overcome their difficulties with FL learning
