Gretchen and Jeanine, the Founders of Fundamental Learning Center, had no other choice but to do the work themselves. Their kiddos were struggling and nobody could help them.
​
There were anxiety attacks, tummy-ache calls from the nurse, and a lot of frustration and saddess.
​
After years of back-and-forth, it was clear was the only option was to do it themselves. Jeanine spent six years spending three weeks in Dallas, three weeks in Wichita so she could get the best possible training for her son, Cooper.
She didn't want any other parent to feel the way she did for so long - all kids deserve to get the help they need. So, in 2000 Fundamental Learning Center was created and the impact began.

Teaching the Teachers
66% of 4th graders in Kansas aren't proficient readers
& it's not your fault
You weren't handed the curriculum you needed to teach students of any age to read. You were given the philosophies, but no curriculum.
​
That needs to change. Let us help you.
​
With over 38,000 square feet and state of the art technology, we will be able to reach you and so many others.

Fundamental Learning Center has always wanted to create a ripple effect. We know if we teach the teachers, our impact will be much greater.
​
Through the Andeel Teacher Literacy Institute (ATLI) we've successfully trained over 15,000 teachers GLOBALLY.
​
The ability to reach this many teachers is largely attributed to our synchronous distance learning abilities.
Having A Global Impact
Our training is recognized as research-based and accredited by the International Multisensory Structured Language Education Council (IMSLEC) and the International Dyslexia Association (IDA).
The new building will allow us to create a more robust synchronous distance learning program which will be especially important during these unprecedented times.
​
Our vision is to be able to offer the laboratory experience to our distance learning audience. This would require more technology and wiring.
​
Further, with the extra space will we be able to host more teachers in person.
