Professional Coaching for Educators

There is a thirst for quality literacy education in the U.S. right now that can only be quenched by educators trained to teach evidence-based literacy programming with proficiency.

Providing quality literacy education can feel difficult and confusing, especially for classroom teachers tasked with teaching a variety of other subjects.

That’s where the Literacy Spark’s educator coach, Emily Carley, can help. With 15+ years of experience as a classroom teacher, 5+ years working as a literacy specialist, and a career spent advocating for equitable education for all, Emily is well-equipped to coach educators in both literacy instruction and their careers.

The Literacy Spark mission is to provide high quality, equitable literacy education for as many students possible and this starts with you!

Testimonials

  • “I learned effective routines for teaching phonics and spelling, but more importantly, I have a more solid grounding in the science of reading. This is beginning to enable me to recognize what my students know and what they need, and to make important decisions as an educator about what instructional routines and materials can support students in developing strong literacy skills.”

    The Science of Reading in Practice Course

  • “This course helped me understand where to begin with my class that has varied skill levels, as well as what I should start with if I ever teach a younger grade. I have a better understanding of what kinds of activities to do with my students as a whole class or in small groups, and I can identify what literacy strategies/curriculum will be effective with students and which are not based in science.”
