I’m thrilled to share a new project straight from the heart of this year’s National Direct Instruction Conference and Institutes — a new YouTube playlist I’ve put together called DI Voices.

Armed with just my phone and a little persistence, I tracked down educators between sessions (no small feat at this amazing, high-energy event!) to capture bite-sized, on-the-ground conversations about what Direct Instruction looks like in real schools, with real students, and real support.

In this mini-episode, the team from Athena Trust joins us from the UK to share how DI Math is fueling huge gains for their students — and how fidelity and support make the difference.

These mini-episodes aren’t slick or scripted — they’re raw, real, and packed with insight. You’ll hear from teachers, principals, researchers, and NIFDI team members who are doing the work and generously sharing their experiences.
