On Sunday, 6/7, we celebrated the achievements of our graduates! These kids worked so hard to overcome challenges with reading, writing, and language, putting in hours of tutoring even after a long day at school. We wish our graduates all the best and encourage them to always reach for the stars! We're so proud of all you have accomplished! Keep reading, learning, and growing! Now spread your wings and fly!

The CDCL is currently seeking dedicated individuals for dyslexia practitioner training!
While it's a BIG time commitment, the impact it makes on the lives of the children you'll tutor will be extremely rewarding, and you'll learn fascinating facts about the English language!

Training spans just over 1 year. Upon completion, you'll be certified as a dyslexia practitioner through Children's Dyslexia Centers, Inc. (accreditation requirements set by IMSLEC); PA educators can also request 180 Act 48 hours.

This training is offered at nearly no charge-- just a $200 materials fee and your time commitment to attending training sessions (60 hours), completing a supervised practicum (minimum 100 hours), and submitting required coursework (responses to books/articles, quizzes, exams). Master's coursework credit is available for an additional fee. Interested individuals can contact [email protected]

Only YOU can prevent illiteracy! 😉
