Today we’re speaking with the Vice President of Brainspring’s Educator Academy, Laurie Wagner! Laurie is the 2020 recipient of IMSLEC’s Etoile DuBard Award of Excellence. She is also the creator of Brainspring’s doubly-accredited Orton-Gillingham programs, Phonics First and Structures. 

Laurie joins our hosts to discuss how she first learned of Orton-Gillingham, why it became the focus of her 30-year career, and how the accreditation process works.
