Hello,

My name is Derek Albert. I have been a part-time adult literacy
coordinator for the past 18 months.  The most challenging aspect of the
work (which I enjoy very much) was accommodating those adult learners
who demonstrated "reading" disabilities, more so than "learning"
disabilities.  Having recently acquired materials and resources and
developed some as well, I feel better equipped to help those learners
largely demonstrating reading disabilities. I am always seeking new
ideas and information to help advance my work.  I look forward to all
this professional development opportunity has to offer.
