SB 1003 Dyslexia Related Teacher Training-final | Page 3

About This Training…
I am honored to be included on the Oregon Department of Education's list
of approved trainers. I believe every teacher deserves the best in
professional development.
What Sets You Apart?
I am a teacher. My years in public education have provided me with
perspective on the daily challenges (and successes!) of teaching.
This is not training for one. While Senate Bill 612 states, “each school district
shall ensure that at least one kindergarten through grade ve teacher in
each kindergarten through grade ve school has received training related
to dyslexia”, the educator selected cannot be the “all knowing, go-to”
person in his/her building for all things dyslexia and reading related. I intend
to position this person to be a conduit—bringing knowledge and learning
back to his/her staff.
Knowledge that transcends curriculum. These workshops provide
foundational knowledge about teaching reading that transcend
curriculum. When educators are equipped with this knowledge, they can
teach reading and writing authentically—with any curriculum.
