From one-time workshops to yearlong PD arcs, I offer professional learning experiences that bridge research and practice. Whether your team is launching a structured literacy initiative, implementing dyslexia screening requirements, or refining and aligning tiers of reading intervention, each session is designed to align with your goals and evolving policy expectations.

Professional Development

Core Areas of Training

Every school and district has unique needs. My professional development is always tailored, but here are a few examples of the kinds of trainings, workshops and institutes I design to help educators move research into practice.

  • Foundational Reading Intervention (K–12)
    Designing structured, evidence-based reading interventions for students who struggle, from early decoding to multisyllabic word reading.

  • Dyslexia: From Screening to Support
    Translating screening data into instructional action and building systems that meet the needs of students with dyslexia.

  • The Science of Writing
    Evidence-based practices for handwriting, spelling, and written expression, with an emphasis on integrating writing into reading instruction and across content areas.

  • Using Data to Drive Instruction
    Implementing progress monitoring and Data-Based Individualization (DBI) to intensify reading and writing support.

Turning Evidence Into Action

✔ Grounded in the science of reading, writing, and learning

✔ Practical routines, materials, and examples teachers can use tomorrow

✔ Evidence-based, not trend-based

✔ Built for educators, administrators, and support staff

✔ Flexible delivery: in-person, virtual, or hybrid

✔ Built to sustain change beyond a single training
