In school, language is the hidden curriculum. We make it visible.
Powered by Systemic Functional Linguistics, our Visible Language™ Toolkit pairs transformative teacher training with practical tools — equipping K-12 students to master academic language and accelerate learning in every subject.
The Visible Language™ Toolkit
The Visible Language™ system is a practical, research-backed professional learning framework grounded in Systemic Functional Linguistics. We bridge the gap between complex literacy research and daily instruction, giving educators methods and tools to explicitly teach the often-hidden patterns of disciplinary language students need to succeed.
Targeted Professional Learning
In-person, virtual, and self-paced training modules to help educators use Visible Language™ pedagogy to strengthen daily classroom practice and disciplinary thinking.
Classroom-Ready Tools
Practical resources and strategies educators can implement immediately to explicit language instruction directly with content standards.
iNstructional Alignment
Expert review of curricular materials to identify gaps, strengthen scaffolding, and defragment learning experiences across programs and interventions.
