“I am a first grade teacher in my first year of teaching and I was making slow progress with many of my low-achieving students. After I received Augusta Mann’s video and guidebook and phonics posters and attended her workshops, I used her program in my classroom. l now I have no possible retainees. I have nine students who can read at a 2nd and 3rd grade level.”
First Year Teacher, Indianapolis, IN“Excellent. Please come back every school year!”
Teacher Assistant, Detroit, MI“Augusta, Wow! Your website is the balm for all that ills the teacher’s African American students. We know if we can teach them, they can learn. OABE and Culture Intervention is excited about your presentation, Thursday. Can’t wait.”

“Did the workshop meet your expectations?
Yes! Yes! Yes! Thank you very much!”
Teacher, Detroit, MI“The presenter was extremely well prepared! I want to be like that.
I can use a lot of these ideas immediately!”
Teacher, Detroit, MI“A special education student at another school in the district was introduced to the Augusta Mann reading program in first grade. She continued to use the program with her second grade teacher. Her success was great and she has tested out of special education. We feel that the consistency of using this program from year to year has improved her reading ability and was one of the keys to her success.”
Jackie Cole, Special Education, Indianapolis, IN“The workshop provided immediate methods that I am sure will produce measurable results.”

Elementary School Teachers, Albany, New York“Excellent visuals and so well thought out and prepared. Credible. Excellent with video, music, etc. and the love of culture.”
Outreach Teacher, San Francisco, CA“I have tried many of Ms. Mann’s activities. I love how, over time, all these practices fit together to produce an enormously successful platform for my curriculum. Over the past three years I have grown as a professional. But better still, my students are having the reading success that had been so elusive to them.”

Teacher, San Francisco, CAThe charts above are some of the materials for “Synonym Triplets” and “Dancing Definitions”, two of the many teaching strategies that are in “Miss Augusta’s Collection”.
“Your methods are awesome. I have gone to a lot of workshops, but what they are presenting doesn’t apply to our children. You have a handle on what children in our school need. My kindergartners learned the alphabet quickly using the method that you demonstrated. Your methods work for my students.”
Kindergarten Teacher, Indianapolis, IN“Augusta is not ambiguous about anything. You get precision with her. I like the way she reminded us again that children need repetition and modeling.”
Teacher, Indianapolis, IN“I really enjoy watching Augusta model the lessons—she’s very entertaining and inspiring.”
