Direct Instruction Training

Our hands-on workshops are a must for all teachers, educational assistants, administrators, educators, and parents who want to learn how to teach using the Direct Instruction approach. Johanna Preston, M. Ed., a member of the Ontario College of Teachers and a certified Direct Instruction teacher and trainer, teaches each one-day workshop.

For your convenience, the workshops can be held at the location of your choice.

We offer the following Direct Instruction workshops:

• Teaching Corrective Reading Decoding & Comprehension
• Teaching Reading Mastery Levels 1-6
• Teaching Language for Learning
• Teaching Spelling Mastery
• Teaching Reasoning & Writing
• Teaching Connecting Math Concepts

Each one-day workshop program covers instruction strategies such as placement, lesson presentation, formats, and error correction procedures, to ensure a high level of student engagement. Participants will not only learn presentation techniques, but practice them as well.

Included in the price of each Direct Instruction workshop is a Teacher's Guide and training handout for each participant.
