EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

After twenty years in education, I am looking for opportunities to conduct inform and train others to help dyslexic people. I will conduct private or group trainings in OG curriculum. Parents, educators, and teachers are welcomed. I want to help close the achievement gaps in dyslexic children in all school settings. The Mission of Step By Step Dyslexia Solutions is to help dyslexic children improve their literacy skills. We want to do this in order that they can realize their full potential and positively impact their communities.
