For nearly three decades, Wilson Language Training® (WLT) has been dedicated to “Literacy for All.” We empower individual educators, schools, and districts to achieve literacy with all students in their care.
WLT started with the education of teachers who were working with individuals with dyslexia. Now, in addition to our school- and district-level in-service work, the Wilson certification models are embedded into several universities’ reading or special education graduate degree programs so that teachers are better prepared to teach the most challenged readers.
Whether educators work with us in their schools/districts or at a university, our goal is the same: to give them a high-level of knowledge and skill with teaching reading and writing to all of their students.
