Learn effective, proven tools to teach foundational skills and help all students improve in reading, writing, and spelling.

Engage your students with teaching methods that work for all students, not just those who are struggling.  Proven reading proficiency improvements in the double digits. 

Teachers LOVE working with EBLI and the EBLI Team

“I’ve been a teacher for 17 years, and I’ve never enjoyed parent-teacher conferences this much. It was so fun to talk about the growth kids are making and celebrate successes with parents. They’re saying things like, ‘whatever you are doing this year, it's great,’ or ‘she is a completely different kid from kindergarten,’ or ‘that thing you are doing with the sounds is really working,’ or ‘before 1st grade, reading caused tears. Now he wants to pick up a book on his own.’ My hope was that EBLI would work by the end of the year, never did I think I would have this much progress in just 9 weeks.”
Holly Mueller
First Grade Teacher
“There are no gimmicks involved, I don’t need to show YouTube videos. I don’t need to do stupid motions, and show you pictures, I don’t need to waste my money on sight word cards. It’s so easy, and so intense and exact. It freed up a lot of my time during the day. So I can teach science more, I can dig deeper in math, and the kids love it. Today’s lesson took us 45 minutes because it was sort of new, and they weren’t wiggly or squirmy. it’s just so simple and so easy and you don’t need a lot of stuff to do it. You need a white board and a dry erase marker and you’re good to go.”

Meet the Founder

Nora Chahbazi

Welcome! I’m Nora, the founder of EBLI and a devoted advocate of high level literacy for all. Formerly a Neonatal ICU nurse, my daughter’s struggles catapulted me into the world of literacy instruction in 1997. I’ve been dedicated to providing teachers – and students – with effective, efficient literacy instruction ever since.

I am a voracious reader and believe that no one should suffer unnecessarily because they have not yet been taught in a way that results in them becoming a highly proficient reader. The nation’s education system has recently become more interested in the research on the science of reading and how the brain functions when learning to read and read well. This is a welcome and exciting shift!

With EBLI, I am and always have been eager to provide educators with a bridge from  the science of reading to application with students in the classroom. We know that 95-100% of students can and will become proficient at reading with effective, efficient instruction based on the science of reading!

In training and coaching thousands of teachers over the years, I have seen firsthand their dedication and devotion in the classroom. They deserve to have the highest quality tools, support, and knowledge to best utilize their expertise to get their students to their highest literacy potential. I love doing all I can to assist in that goal!

EBLI and Multi-level Readers

HOW THIS CALIFORNIA TEACHER IMPROVED HER LITERACY TOOLS TO BETTER SUPPORT HER CLASSROOM OF VARIED STUDENTS

“They’re willing to try to read, whereas at the beginning of the year they didn’t raise their hand to read. Now they get involved in the discussions. They’re talking about a fact or character in the story.”
Ruth Hernandez explaining the difference her students experience after they’re introduced to EBLI.
