Welcome! I'm Dr. Danielle Gantt, founder of Dr. Gantt's Literacy Lab. As a first-grade teacher, Reading Specialist, and educational leader, I am passionate about helping every child become a confident, successful reader.
With more than 20 years of experience in elementary education, I have dedicated my career to teaching foundational literacy skills and supporting young learners. My work is grounded in the Science of Reading and focuses on providing engaging, research-based instruction that builds strong reading foundations. Throughout my career, I have partnered with students, families, and fellow educators to create meaningful learning experiences that inspire a lifelong love of reading.
I founded Dr. Gantt's Literacy Lab to extend my impact beyond the classroom by providing high-quality literacy resources, curriculum, and professional learning opportunities that make reading instruction practical, engaging, and effective for teachers, parents, and homeschool families.
