Christina Winter spent 21 years teaching 1st grade before leaving the classroom to pursue her other passion of mentoring teachers. She now spends her days teaching and supporting K-2 teachers through her website Lead in Literacy and her membership Leaders of Literacy.

Throughout her years in the classroom, she was trained and taught her students literacy skills with the balanced literacy approach before accidentally stumbling onto the science of reading. Once she learned of the research it ignited her passion to learn more and has taken hundreds of hours of professional learning including The Reading Teacher’s Top Ten Tools and LETRS training.

Christina is excited to share her passion for evidence-based reading and language arts instruction and can’t wait to hear about your students’ growth.
