LEAD’s Mission
The mission
of LEAD is to provide multisensory structured
language training for individuals interested in becoming
Academic Language Therapists. LEAD also
provides both public
and private schools with the framework for implementing
multisensory structured language programs and is a resource for
parents, teachers and the community.
LEAD Makes a Difference
LEAD teacher
training provides a research-based approach to
teaching literacy skills and the training includes instruction in
phonological awareness, alphabetic principle, reading (decoding),
fluency, reading comprehension, cursive handwriting, spelling,
grammar, oral expression and written composition.
“LEAD is making significant
contributions to literacy…LEAD
emphasizes all the major needs”
Aylett Cox, M.A.
Comments from past students and
administrators:
“This was the most relaxed, yet
intense training I’ve ever had”
“Why didn’t I learn this in graduate
school”
“We now refer our teachers to LEAD,
not only because the
academic language therapy instruction is organized, efficient,
effective and comprehensive, but also because of the on-site
teacher/student supervision.”
