Our Team
Anthea and Elaine began working together in 2018 and soon discovered a shared passion for teaching students to read and spell using a systematic synthetic phonics approach with explicit instruction at the core.
To continue their passion, Anthea and Elaine took one giant leap of their own, to design and create high-quality educational resources that teachers and students love to use. With their first-hand classroom experience, they understand what works—and they’re passionate about supporting teachers everywhere in delivering exceptional instruction.
Our mission is to provide high quality instruction that brings enjoyment, success and a love of learning to students and their teachers!
“We’ve experienced first-hand how explicit instruction brings engagement, motivation and results to students learning core literacy skills.”
