Current studies
We are currently recruiting for an intervention study investigating the effects of biliteracy (reading in two languages) on bilingual children with reading challenges (see poster below). The study begins in September 2023. All activities will be conducted in your home and online. Your child must be in French school (and not French immersion) to participate. If you would like to participate with your child or would like more information, please email: [email protected] or scan the QR code on the poster below. Thanks for your interest!
