“I enjoyed the treatment techniques and instruction on cycles approach, and how to incorporate literacy how to incorporate written letters.” B.C. (Aug. 2021)

"I enjoyed the discussion on tying meaning to the written word as a comprehension builder. I liked the presentation style." P.F. (Jun. 2021)

"I was particularly interested in the final webinar with the lists of sound loaded, and grammatical morpheme loaded books. I am interested in incorporating theme based activities in my school practice. I liked the resources provided for online and printable resources." A.C. (May 2021)

(Jan. 2022)

"I liked using print with the preschool population. Good videos of sessions, and good list of resources." J.S. (Jan. 2022)

"This course was perfect! Learning the connection between the different areas of the brain and how each system works to build a multimodality approach to literacy...it makes perfect sense that we should introduce print when we're working on target sounds. Thank you!" S.G. (Dec. 2021)

"It was very helpful to learn of so much evidenced based support for providing print with each level of the process. Having done this for years, it was very reinforcing. I also enjoyed learning Keli Richmond's strategies for presenting consonant and vowel digraphs. As I work with various levels of children's ability, her information on Reading and the Brain was very helpful to keep in mind and probe during evaluation and on-going assessment. Her handout was well organized and informative; useful for filing and future reference. Her video illustrations were well timed and helpful along with a few related personal experiences. I enjoyed this course."  A.H. (Dec. 2021)

"I loved all of the examples and reference charts!!!"  C.M. (Nov. 2021)

"Keli gave great examples of practical activities to use in therapy to improve speech but especially to help children become readers. I have been using simple games to increase sound production opportunities and reading a book to tie in vocabulary and reading with the sounds we are working on. I Loved that she uses later developed sounds in the child's age/developmental range and sees improvement in early sounds that aren't yet acquired. I am using her four-picture picture schedule and it is working beautifully! Examples, right amount of lecture, game and book resources, apps and online resources - actually I liked the whole course!"  K.S. (Nov. 2021)

E.S. (June 2021)
