My daughter's confidence went through the roof after working with Dr. Canty.

Dr. Canty's support to both of my sons learning to read and growth in reading has been invaluable. She guided us through a dyslexia and ADHD diagnosis and I credit her with teaching both of them how to read. Their confidence has grown as they continue to work with her and she is quick to understand what they need support in and knows exactly how to help them.

Independent schools rely on carefully selected individual experts for professional development. Without access to federal PD budgets, the quality of outside expertise matters even more. Dr. Canty works directly with your faculty to build literacy knowledge and instructional capacity that lasts.
Public districts benefit from bringing in independent voices for keynotes, professional development days, and literacy leadership sessions — especially when the goal is to move beyond what internal resources alone can provide.

She fiercely championed teacher training in morphology and secured the necessary materials for our classrooms. The impact was staggering: within just one year of this training, 80% of my students, all of whom are diagnosed with learning disabilities, scored at grade level on their final i-Ready assessment.

If you are looking for an educational consultant who delivers professional development with purpose, practical application, and lasting impact, I cannot recommend Dr. Canty highly enough.
Dr. Canty provided a workshop on science of reading and how to make sense of it in the classroom. She taught us what's truly meaningful and what will make the most impact to help my students achieve. She knows her stuff, but you can tell that she has also done the work with real life children. That makes all the difference. I could see my class literacy scores grow while my confidence also grew.
