The Missouri Statewide Early Literacy Intervention Program

Southeast Missouri State University is one of 23 University Training Centers (UTC) in the United States.  The UTC provides training for Reading Recovery® teacher-leaders in the state of Missouri.

Reading Recovery®


Developed in 1984, Reading Recovery® is a highly effective short-term intervention of one-to-one tutoring for low-achieving first graders.  The intervention is most effective when made available to all students who need it and when used as a supplement to good classroom teaching.  In Reading Recovery®, individual students receive lessons from specially trained teachers.

Southeast Missouri State University has been a Reading Recovery® site since 1991 and since 1997 has received bipartisan state support as part of the Missouri Statewide Early Literacy Intervention Program (MSELIP).
