Expert Support, Built Around Your Child

Canty EdWorks works with families across a wide range of circumstances — whether your child attends an independent school, is homeschooled, travels frequently, or simply needs targeted support that goes beyond what the classroom provides.

Families We Work With

Independent school families — seeking support that matches the academic standard their school sets.

Families with flexible or travel-based schedules — including those in entertainment, athletics, or other professions that require adaptable session structures.

Families following a private evaluation — who have an assessment in hand and need an experienced interventionist to turn those findings into a working plan.

Homeschool families — looking for structured literacy or subject-area expertise to complement their home curriculum.

Families seeking broader educational support — Dr. Canty's background spans all elementary subject areas.

Three Levels of Support

Every student is different. Canty EdWorks offers three tiers so your child gets exactly the type and intensity of support they need. All tiers are available as one-on-one or small group sessions, based on your family's preference.

Intensive

Canty Clinic

Targeted Intervention

For students with identified learning differences, dyslexia, or significant skill gaps who need intensive, evidence-based intervention. Instruction is grounded in Orton-Gillingham and Lindamood-Bell methodologies, covering structured literacy and core subject areas. Sessions follow structured plans with clear goals and flexible scheduling around your family's needs.

Foundational

Canty Core

Structured Academic Support

For students who are on grade level but want consistent, targeted support to build even stronger skills. Instruction uses Orton-Gillingham methods and covers literacy and core subject areas. Sessions follow structured plans with clear goals and flexible scheduling around your family's needs.

Advanced

Canty Challenge

Enrichment & Acceleration

For high-performing students who are ready for above-grade-level work, deeper critical thinking, and enrichment that keeps them engaged and growing. Includes advanced reading and writing projects, analytical skill-building, independent research, and personalized pacing.

Not Sure Which Tier Fits Your Child?

That's exactly what the free consultation is for. In 20 minutes, Dr. Canty will learn about your child's needs and recommend the right path forward — no commitment required.

Schools & Districts

Professional Development That Meets You Where You Are

Dr. Canty brings the same depth of knowledge and classroom experience to independent schools and public districts — with a clear understanding that each environment has its own structure, culture, and resources.

Independent Schools

Individual Expertise, Directly to Your Faculty

Independent schools rely on carefully selected individual experts for professional development. Without access to federal PD budgets, the quality of outside expertise matters even more. Dr. Canty works directly with your faculty to build literacy knowledge and instructional capacity that lasts.

  • Literacy curriculum audit and alignment
  • Faculty PD on structured literacy practices
  • Instructional coaching for PreK–6 teachers
  • In-school student support sessions
Public Schools & Districts

Outside Expertise Worth Bringing In

Public districts benefit from bringing in independent voices for keynotes, professional development days, and literacy leadership sessions — especially when the goal is to move beyond what internal resources alone can provide.

  • Keynotes and guest PD sessions
  • Science of Reading district workshops
  • Curriculum audit and gap analysis
  • Literacy leadership sessions for administrators
