We all know that today’s teens should read more, but the more salient questions about why or what they should read often go unanswered. Mike Bergin of Chariot Learning has answers to share in the form of research supported facts and strategies for building regular reading habits. What will teens and their parents learn from this free interactive online seminar?
- Is reading a skill that can be improved?
- How often should teens read to unlock real mastery?
- What are the benefits of stronger reading skills?
- How do broad reading skills impact school grades and test scores?
- What nonfiction and fiction books are best for high schoolers?
- With limited time available, what kind of reading should teens prioritize?
This seminar is free, but advance registration is required. Register through our Student Information Form and specify the Teen Reading seminar. We will reply to registrants by email with the invitation to this Zoom seminar.
