Here is what educators are saying about MONDO Professional Development:

Area Superintendent, Palm Beach County, Florida ...
"Over a three-year period from 2002–2003, through the Building Essential Literacy (BEL) project, Mondo worked with reforming the leadership and literacy practices of six of Palm Beach County’s schools serving large populations of high-risk students.  Through an off-site and on-site approach to Professional Development, Mondo aided the schools by improving literacy practices that are being sustained.  The high standard of Mondo’s Professional Development has provided continual professional growth for all involved. Mondo’s program addresses district and school leadership, as well as teacher and student’s needs….


Mondo’s successful impact on Palm Beach County’s BEL schools has prompted the district to extend Mondo’s Professional Development program to six new schools coming on board as a new BEL cohort, 2003/04. Building on the success of the initial six Palm Beach County schools, the District has engaged Mondo to take a crucial role in our new Accelerated Academic Achievement Plan (AAA), addressing other high needs schools."

Director of Early Childhood Education, New York City ...
"I have observed classroom teachers grow in their understanding of best practices in literacy acquisition through their training in BEL professional development sessions, the full time support of the BEL trained Literacy Coach, and from the BEL consultants working along side teachers and coaches on site in the schools. …

The foundation of literacy understandings for teachers and students built in the K-2 years, became a strong platform on which to build student outcomes in the New York City and State testing grades of 3 and 4.  Accordingly, BEL was extended to these grades in years 4 and 5 of the project. BEL has definitely proved an effective solution for the schools in our district, including improved outcomes on State tests. The BEL model of professional development has made a significant difference in the lives of our students and teachers."

Superintendent, Bronx, New York ...

"Mondo Publishing has been providing Professional Development in Literacy to sites in New York City School District 11 since 1986. These programs have been customized to meet the individual school requirements and the programs provided have been of a high standard. The programs have included involvement in the BEL Research Project for the past six years and provision of multi-faceted literacy professional development to individual schools and districts via the company’s staff developers. As the former superintendent, I observed, first-hand, the quality and commitment of Mondo’s staff developers and their ability to partner collaboratively with our schools …

We look forward to the opportunity to work with their team of highly skilled and motivating consultants in our schools in the future."

Teachers and Literacy Coaches across the country ...
"I really think most of my teachers are truly the best trained in the country thanks to BEL.  Not only do they know how to assess, interpret and use data for instructions, but they also use Best Practices for our diverse student body."

"I feel BEL has truly focused our teaching in the area of reading instruction in most of our primary classrooms.  Teachers feel more accountable to our students.  Information between Reading Recovery, grade levels and individual classrooms is being shared more readily.  We are on our way to becoming a team."

"I have become a more structured teacher due to BEL."

"Working in small groups has enabled me to get to know each child.  I am better able to help each one progress and I can also monitor what they are learning and how they are learning it."

"It has changed visions for our teachers and we have become better teachers."
