Unlocking Literacy: Empowering Kids with Disabilities to Read
In this episode of Empowering Homeschool Conversations, host Peggy Ployhar is joined by Stefanie Hohl, M.Ed., an experienced educator and reading specialist, to discuss "Unlocking Literacy: Empowering Kids with Disabilities to Read." Stefanie, who has spent years teaching children to read, holds advanced degrees in children’s literature and early childhood education. Her dedication to making reading accessible led her to create the ABC See, Hear, Do Learn-to-Read method, a hands-on approach designed to make early reading engaging and achievable for all learners, including those with disabilities. With her extensive experience running preschool, homeschool, and local storytime programs, Stefanie understands the challenges children with unique learning needs face in literacy. From her home in Pittsburgh, where she lives with her husband, five children, and two playful dogs, Stefanie will share her insights on fostering confidence and joy in reading, offering practical techniques to help parents and educators make reading an attainable goal for every child.
