"I have been working my way through the online course and then decided to do a start-up webinar. That was a great idea. Being face-to-face with the writer of the course helped me sort out the details that I wasn't sure about. Practising the routines with you Hilton and getting your feedback was great! "
Phillip, Classroom teacher.

Why have a Start-Up Webinar?
Many teachers love the at-your-own-pace, in-your-own-time learning that our ONLiNE Courses offer. But we also know that in our frantic teaching world, sometime it really pays to have an event to get the training off to a good start.
So here is your event - a two-hour webinar with the writer of the course who will get you inspired with what we think is our unique approach to reading instruction. We are great believers in 'The Science of Reading' and will show you our alignment. We will answer your questions and talk you through the routines that have proven to make such a difference to students reading achievement and motivation for reading.
You will be all fired up and ready to make a start in your classroom the very next day!
