Teach reading, teach success.
With too many children struggling to read, educators play a pivotal role in providing students a tool they need to succeed—literacy. The foundations of critical thinking, concept development, and reasoning and comprehension all have cornerstones in literacy, and no one is better equipped to strengthen that skill than you.
With a K-12 Reading License from Hamline, you will:
- Identify key skills, strategies, and concepts central to reading achievement.
- Become skilled at adapting your reading instruction to meet the needs of students at all reading levels.
- Learn what it takes to be a literacy leader through immersion in the field.
