The curriculum
Training goes beyond scripts. You’ll learn the research behind Dr. Maryanne Wolf’s model of the reading brain, and why every RAVE-O component is there for a reason.
The POSSUM approach
Why integrating six components phonics alone.
Science to Story
How research translates into daily classroom practice.
Heterogeneity of dyslexia
Every struggling reader is different — training reflects that.
Deep reading processes
Inference, empathy, and critical analysis, not just decoding.
Crafting Minds partnership
“We teach you not only how to teach reading, but why each element is emphasized and connected to simulate the reading brain.”
