Docendo Discimus – By Teaching, We Learn

By Dr. Karen Wieland and James Currie More than HALF! Did you know that 29% of the words in the English language are derived directly from Latin words? Another 29% are derived from Old French, and the vast majority of these words also can be traced back to Latin. That means that nearly 58% of […]

What Others Are Saying…

BEST EDU PROF I'VE HAD AT ANY INSTITUTION

Dr. Wieland is by far the best prof I’ve had at Bona and the best Edu prof I’ve [had] at any institution. Her classes are demanding and worthwhile. I learned a lot. Assignments are not easy but will help students understand the course objectives. She is very willing to help students in anyway: office hours, study help, Skyping, even independent study courses.

SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS

We became aware approximately two years ago that Dr. Wieland was working on level two Wilson Reading and that she was willing to involve my daughter in the work she was doing. Since that time, she has worked with my daughter, first specifically on the Wilson Reading [program], and then branching out to include improving her contextual comprehension, fluency, and vocabulary as well as her reading motivation. While my daughter does not yet read at grade level, she has made significant progress, w… Read more

INCREDIBLE STRIDES IN READING SKILLS

In the first grade, my daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia. She struggles with basic reading skills. This past summer, she was given the opportunity to work on a one-on-one basis with Dr. Karen Wieland. They have been using the Wilson Reading system. My daughter has been making incredible strides in her reading skills. This past summer for school, she has read five books with very little assistance.

Public Review of Vocabulary Building with Roots & Affixes – Suffixes on Outschool

Dr Karen Wieland is an amazing teacher- she engages her students with a variety of tools and is able to give individualized attention even in a group setting.

An exceptional teacher

Dr. Karen is an exceptional teacher. I would highly recommend her to any parent seeking foundational instruction spelling and reading. She is incredibly dedicated, caring, friendly, engaged with her student and really knows her stuff! It’s quite clear that, for her, this teaching is a calling rather than an extra source of income. My daughter actually looks forward to her phonics sessions with Dr. Karen. That says a lot. In two weeks of intense sessions, we have already noticed a distinct improv… Read more

Great Energy – Positive Online Experience

My daughter has taken a few classes from Dr. Karen and she never disappoints. Great energy, positive online experience. Though I don’t listen in on the class, I hear saying different kids names to engage everybody. My daughter sees Latin everywhere now- grateful she has this opportunity. Thank you Dr. Karen!
