Instructional Training for Parents
Empower Your Teaching: Effective Literacy Instruction Training for Parents
Navigating the world of early literacy support can feel daunting. There's a sea of information, products, and well-meaning advice online and from schools, but we understand it's hard to know what truly works. Unfortunately, some common practices, though seemingly helpful, can actually hinder your child's progress or cause unnecessary confusion.
Eulexia Tutoring's Parent Instructional Training is designed to cut through the noise and empower you with clear, reliable, science-backed knowledge and practical skills. We equip you to confidently guide your child's literacy journey and avoid common pitfalls often found in less effective approaches.
Why Some Common Practices Fall Short (And What Works Better):
You might be surprised, for instance, that emphasizing letter names (like "bee" for B) before a child masters letter sounds (/b/) can actually make learning to read harder. Insight from research shows that focusing first on the sounds – the actual building blocks of spoken and written words – creates a much stronger and less confusing foundation. Our training helps you understand the principled reasoning behind effective techniques like this, based on how children actually learn to read, so you can make informed choices.
