The Institute of Reading Development is now hiring summer teachers for their reading programs for students of all ages. In these programs they combine skills instruction with the experience of reading and discussing really good books. They help their students develop strong fluency and comprehension skills. Their mission is to inspire a lifelong love of reading.
