Calling All Reading M.Ed Alumni! We would love your help. We are looking for volunteer mentors for our current Reading M.Ed cohort students. The commitment is about 30 minutes per week (for 7 weeks) and includes tasks such as answer questions about your role as a reading specialist and providing practical feedback to help them improve skills such as coaching and presenting! Most mentoring can be done through email or messaging. If you are interested in learning more, comment below or reach out to Dr. Copp! We would love to have you be a part of this cohort's journey to becoming Reading Specialists!
