The symposium was an amazing event. The speakers were knowledgeable and professional. I learned so much from listening to them and I am now really looking forward to my training next week!

Being free to access meant that there were no barriers other than having the time for someone to sign up and see the presentations. I actively encouraged other teachers, who were perhaps unaware of the science behind reading instruction to check it out, and hopefully be swayed to improve their practice!
