Understanding Struggling Readers: Could it be Dyslexia?

December 3, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Description: Do you know someone who struggles with reading, spelling, and writing? Come learn what dyslexia is, what it isn’t, and what evidence-based research tells us works.

After the presentation, our speaker Renee Bernhardt will invite questions from the audience.

Presenter: Renee Bernhardt, MS, EdS, WDT has taught students in first through twelfth grade during her teaching and administrative careers in upstate New York and Georgia. Renee has earned a Master of Science degree in Literacy, a Specialist degree in Curriculum, and Instruction and Administrative certification.

Outreach events such as this provide opportunities for individuals to connect in person with parents, educators, and others interested in learning and engaging in discussions about dyslexia and related topics. Outreach events are free and open to the public, but we do ask that you register to reserve your seat and to aid us in planning the event.
