Meet Audrey
A classroom teacher for 13 years in the Chicago suburbs, Audrey began to notice the growing gaps struggling readers had. She felt that some schools weren’t properly training or equipping their teachers with the knowledge to support students with literacy deficits. Audrey’s goal is to close the gaps and give all children the confidence of a good reader with the skills to succeed.
