What people are saying..

25 years of teaching and I still found so much to learn from this class! It clearly explained the science of how children learn to read and connected it to the most effective teaching methods. Each time I completed a module, I was eager to apply it to my day-to-day practice.

3rd Grade Teacher

I would highly recommend this course for all elementary teachers! It was informative on every level, and the multi-modal modules were easy to follow and engaging.
