Feeling stuck in your teaching practice? Wondering how to better support struggling students? You're not alone. Many educators reach a point where they need deeper knowledge and skills to advance their impact. Dr. Elizabeth Burke Hadley's journey from literature lover to high school English teacher to literacy researcher demonstrates how advanced study can transform both career trajectory and professional effectiveness.

Graduate education provides more than just additional teaching techniques. It offers theoretical frameworks that help explain why certain approaches work, research-based evidence to guide instructional decisions, and a community of fellow educators who bring diverse perspectives and experiences. As Dr. Hadley explains, "Graduate studies really deepened my understanding of everything in the classroom." This deeper understanding translates directly to improved student outcomes.

Feeling inspired? USF’s fully online MA in Reading Education offers flexible pacing, innovative curriculum, embedded media literacy, Florida K-12 endorsement eligibility, and guidance from expert faculty connected to local and global literacy communities.
