Workshops that Build Skills and Confidence
These aren’t just academic refreshers. Each workshop uses research-backed instruction rooted in the Science of Reading to help your child make meaningful progress in just a few sessions.
Whether your child is just starting their reading journey or needs a boost in a specific skill, there’s a Langsford workshop built just for them.
First Grade Prep Workshop
Help your child master the foundational skills they’ll need to thrive in 1st grade. This week-long program focuses on blending, decoding, comprehension, and handwriting, all in a fun, supportive environment.
For rising 1st graders who need a confident start in reading
Fluency Workshop
Fluent readers understand more, read more confidently, and enjoy reading more. This workshop uses guided practice and repetition to build accuracy, speed, and natural rhythm.
For 2nd-4th graders who need to read with more ease and expression
Writing Workshop
Using our Writer’s Road Map™, students learn to organize ideas, develop strong sentences and paragraphs, and find their own writer’s voice. Writing becomes less stressful—and a lot more fun.
For 4th–6th and 6th-8th graders who want to write clearly and creatively
Student comfort is key
Feeling secure in the process is very important for success.
Online learners use a recurring video conference link, making getting started easy and predictable.
They will be asked to complete short surveys when they finish each session to make sure they feel they are getting what they need.
We’re not fighting about homework
“Langsford is just so unique and so different than we were taught in school. It was amazing.
As our daughter went through the program, I would drive her over every day. I could see the world expanding in front of her. She would ask me, 'Dad, why does that sign say this?' or 'What's ATM mean?' I could see her immediately learning and decoding as we were going. Before, she just sat in the car and was quiet.
It's made things just so much easier for our lives. When she comes home, we're not fighting about homework—she's ready to do it.
At the beginning of second grade, she was hesitant to raise her hand. By the second half of second grade, they were telling us, “She's engaged, she's been participating much more!” Everything we get home from the teachers now is that she works harder than almost any of the students. She's always engaged and participating in discussions. That kind of leap from the beginning of second grade to where we are now in third grade? It was just a complete overhaul.”
