“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. Now I have no possible retainees. I have nine students who can read at a 2nd and 3rd grade level.

"At the training session, we learned about a culturally relevant teaching practice called Dancing Definitions, where you teach the definitions of words by saying them with a rhythm, in a chant, with gestures, or whatever you or the students decide to make it catchy. The classroom I observed was doing this and it was AWESOME!"
