Many teachers recognize the limitations of traditional teacher preparation programs in adequately preparing them to teach the intricate skill of reading. Unlike speaking, which children acquire naturally, reading must be explicitly taught. Our mission is to cultivate proficient readers who can comprehend what they read. MaxScholar offers a explicit, systematic, and multisensory methodology for instructing phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and writing. Our program incorporates the renowned Orton-Gillingham approach, engaging visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modalities in every lesson. Participants gain access to our instructional resources, enabling students to practice and master these vital skills.
Orton-Gillingham Training
Our Science of Reading program is a comprehensive 40-hour course that delves into the scientific underpinnings of reading acquisition and the implementation of a comprehensive instructional approach. Our training aims to empower educators with the knowledge, support, and tools to make an immediate impact on their students' learning. We strive to provide teachers with fresh skills and insights to enhance their effectiveness in teaching reading to all students.
Each training session equips teachers to implement the Orton-Gillingham approach in their classrooms and offers the opportunity to become certified in this powerful method.
