Experience powerful simulations that move beyond paperwork and build authentic understanding.

By helping educators walk in the shoes of their students, we aim to transform not just individual classrooms, but entire school communities, creating truly inclusive, equitable learning environments for all.

Level the Learning Field's simulations are not just another PD session; they’re an interactive, eye-opening experience designed to help educators build empathy, rethink instruction, and remove hidden barriers to learning.

​

This powerful training combines realistic dyslexia simulations, reflective discussions, and practical strategies so your staff walks away with the insight and tools they need to support diverse learners from day one.

Jacqueline,

Special Education Teacher

This was one of the most powerful PD experiences I’ve had. I’m a Special Education teacher who works closely with students with dyslexia, and every simulation felt spot-on. I’ve seen the frustration and exhaustion in my students, but experiencing it myself hit differently. After five simulations, I felt drained and defeated, which made it clear just how much effort my students put in every day. They are smart, capable, and deserve to be recognized for their hard work and perseverance.

Brittany,

Elementary Teacher

"After doing the simulations, I was honestly wiped out. My brain hurt from having to work so hard just to get through the tasks. But that’s what made it so eye-opening. It gave me a real sense of how exhausting and frustrating it must feel for a student with dyslexia every single day. I felt overwhelmed, and that was just a small taste of what they experience all the time. It really hit me emotionally. I think every teacher should go through something like this. It helped me understand my students on a much deeper level, and I’ll carry that with me moving forward."

Kathleen, Parent

"I think this experience has given me a whole new level of understanding of what my son experiences every day.  And, I definitely think I will be much more patient with him, and just realize how hard he is working.  (These simulations) really brought that home for me."
