About the Creator

Hi, I’m Kathy Cousineau, M.Ed., WDP—founder of Level the Learning Field and My Happy Teacher. I’m a certified Dyslexia Practitioner with 30+ years of experience supporting students with learning disabilities and training the educators who work with them.

At Level the Learning Field, we offer powerful Dyslexia and Other Learning Disability Simulations that allow educators to walk in the shoes of their students. When teachers experience these challenges firsthand—whether in reading, writing, spelling, or processing—they better understand why students may feel frustrated or avoid certain tasks. Most importantly, they learn what classroom supports truly level the learning field.

This self-assessment is a great first step toward building a school environment where all learners can succeed.

What We Can Do for Your District

Level the Learning Field provides powerful, hands-on professional development that helps educators understand learning disabilities like dyslexia from the inside out. Through our engaging simulations, staff gain insight into what struggling students experience—so they can recognize signs earlier, apply effective supports, and reduce frustration in the classroom.

Let’s talk about how we can help your team build a more supportive, successful learning environment for all students.
