Learning Differences Scholarship

Thanks to funding from the Oak Foundation, educators who support students with learning differences can apply for a scholarship to the Virtual Mentorship Program and receive a $500 stipend upon completion of the program.

Through this opportunity, special education and English language educators can learn how to build a blended, self-paced, mastery-based classroom responsive to every student's needs. Educators will work 1:1 with an Expert Mentor who will guide them through creating classroom-ready materials - completely free of charge.

For English Language
Educators

  • By providing every student with the time and support they need to achieve mastery, we help build classrooms with genuine opportunities to succeed.

  • Where the traditional system enforces equality - everyone gets the same lesson every day - our model emphasizes equity: every student’s needs are met.

  • Students deserve the opportunity to master content before being forced to move forward. This model will support you in creating instructional content that can be referenced by students at any time.

For Special Education Educators

  • We will show you how to create recorded instructional content, freeing you up to provide individual and small-group support.

  • Every learner is unique! This model gives them the opportunity to learn at their own speed without impacting the learning of others.

  • Caregivers struggle to provide support when they are missing elements of instruction. This approach allows you to easily reference student data and share progress.

“I did this training at the very end of a school year that, due to the pandemic, was possibly the most draining I've ever experienced. And still: I am finishing the year SO EXCITED about next year (after a break, of course)! My excitement, even at a time when I'm feeling so exhausted, is fully because I believe the MCP model has the power to help me meet the needs of ALL STUDENTS like nothing I've done yet in the classroom.”

With the Learning Differences scholarship, you'll receive everything our Virtual Mentorship Program offers, including an Expert Mentor, credentialing, ongoing support, plus a $500 stipend.

Mark Wilson, Special Education Educator, Concord High School

“My school admin's were all fired up about the model, but my cynical teacher self had its doubts. Until I dived in and started watching the videos and talking to Dacia [Expert Mentor]. Literally I think this is the future of learning. I am beyond excited to keep working with this style and program and see how I can use it to keep expanding my practice and skills. Best Professional development ever. It is one I can actually use to better my practice.”
