Program Description
Event Details
A hands-on session to show parents how to use research-proven methods for increasing children’s reading fluency and comprehension presented by Steven Duvall, PhD. These techniques are effective with slow readers and children with learning disabilities and/or dyslexia. The workshop also includes instruction in how to select reading materials, measure progress, track reading gains over time in relation to other students the same age, and how to know whether tutoring is no longer necessary.
Dr. Duvall has served homeschool families as an evaluator and educational advocate since the late 1980s and has worked with the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), where he currently serves as Director of Research, as a consultant since 1993. He is a licensed/certified school psychologist. With experience as a school psychologist in the public schools (21 years) and as a professor and program director of university training programs for school psychologists (19 years), Dr. Duvall brings a unique perspective to homeschooling children with special needs.
