Research-backed and built upon the foundations of Universal Design for Learning and Biliteracy Squared, the P.E. S.O.A.R. Framework for Multilingual Neurodiverse Learners contains six essential pillars that guide classroom practice and honor every student's brilliance.

The Framework also serves as the core for curating MaMu's resources. Designed by our CEO, Sofía María Bosch, and refined through classroom implementation, these six pillars provide educators with actionable strategies, adaptable lesson tools, and evidence-based practices that center the strengths of multilingual and neurodiverse learners.
