What Particpants Say!

"I love how the research and neuroscience were included in the first two modules and that they were explained in a clear and concise manner.  As someone with a background in both education and psychology, I not only find those topics fascinating, but also understand the valuable role that learning the art and science of literacy development plays in effective instruction."
