RS Institute training is absolutely incredible! Every minute of the training is invaluable and they use the most current research and practices. The lessons that they cover apply to all areas of my teaching and I am able to back to my classroom and immediately teach the content that they have covered. They also break the training down into manageable chunks, and are right there to support you if you have any questions. This has been the most valuable training that I have attended, and I have seen tremendous growth and progress with my students.Abbye B., Dyslexia Therapist, Leander ISD

The Rawson Saunders Institute gave me the tools to reach the children who struggle with reading, writing, and spelling that other programs and attempts at remediation failed. As a result of the comprehensive intensive training, I feel confident I can successfully diagnose language weaknesses and provide instruction that will increase reading, writing, and spelling skills, hope, and success.Suzann V., Reading and Math Specialist, Austin ISD

I found the RSI Dyslexia Preparation program to be delightful! The trainers made the lectures interesting, practical, and interactive.

I would highly recommend this program!Cathy Y., Dyslexia Specialist, Austin ISD
