Online Studies Instruction Degree :: Accredited Universities

Did you know that 1 in 7 students face some type of learning disability? Roughly 85% of these students struggle with reading - and 5-15% have dyslexia. Others deal with dyscalculia, dysgraphia, expressive language disorder and auditory and visual processing disorders.

Teaching language-based learning disabled (LBLD) students requires specialized methods and approaches - many of which you won’t learn in a traditional master’s in education program.

SNHU is pleased to introduce the first-ever online program to help students who struggle with reading and writing succeed in elementary to high school, college and beyond: the SNHU online MEd in Dyslexia and Language-Based Learning Disabilities.

This new 33-credit (11-course) concentration within our popular Curriculum & Instruction program is a joint partnership with Landmark School, a renowned leader in the field of serving, educating and empowering LBLD students in elementary, middle and high school.

Demystify Language-Based Learning Disabilities

By concentrating in the online MEd in Dyslexia Studies and Language-Based Learning Disabilities, students will learn how to cultivate academic success in K-12 children with language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia. You will discover how to apply innovative, highly structured practice and research-based approaches to heighten school-aged students’ executive function, information-processing skills, oral and written expression levels, social-emotional confidence and ability to self-advocate.

Courses will center on how students with LBLDs learn, self-regulate and benefit from tailored instruction.

Please note: This is a master’s only pathway program that does not lead to initial teacher licensure, New Hampshire curriculum administrator endorsement, or prepare you to become a Landmark specialist.
