MAX Teaching with Reading and Writing is a team of professionals, led by Todd Luke, President, and Director of Staff Development. Each consultant working with MAX Teaching is prepared to develop teachers through hands-on workshops and modeling of research-proven classroom strategies in reading and writing for learning. Teachers will leave a workshop with many strategies that can be applied right away in their own classrooms. These strategies help students better learn course content while improving students'​ abilities in the communication skills.It is best to schedule at least two days of staff development so that the teachers get to experience and practice 20-30 MAX Teaching strategies among themselves with MAX Teaching team members modeling and explaining the process. This staff development should be followed up with classroom modeling. The Follow-up includes one or more days when we come into the classrooms and model the MAX Teaching strategies in the classrooms with real students in the target school, using the school's own reading materials from the subject matter that originally was to be taught that day.MAX Teaching ServicesStaff development in classroom strategies that are research-proven to help students develop skills in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and thinking.Follow-up consultation and staff development, including classroom modeling of reading and writing strategies.Creation of materials to facilitate teacher use of reading and writing strategies in the classroom.
