For 35 years, Martha has made it her mission to ease the flow of literacy research into real-life practice within  classroom and intervention settings.

​

This “basic training” will give you exactly what you need to confidently and clearly begin to implement more effective—and more equitable—literacy instruction, all in just 8 powerful hours.

​

Walking to Waterfall

This is a live, intensive, hands-on course, limited to under 10 participants. It’s not a passive webinar. It’s highly interactive —expect to participate, reflect, and apply what you’re learning right away. You’ll be part of a safe, encouraging learning environment where questions are welcome, curiosity is valued, and no one gets left behind.

  • Growing national awareness of Dyslexia and DLD 

teachers are seeking clarity and guidance.

This Boot Camp is your starting point.
