LETTERS© has developed easy-to-use learning materials for diverse students of all ages. The team started with a simple concept for meaningful worksheets to complement multisensory teaching methods. We soon realized the necessity for a clean, consistent literacy curriculum which contains all of the elements in an easy-to-teach and easy-to-learn English language program.

Michelle Kapelle is the instructional designer and the founder of LETTERS©.
Faith, family, and friends are my inspiration for life. They are the foundation of my worldview and are what gives me fuel for successful achievements. I delight in opportunities to serve students through designing, developing, and teaching to individual learning styles and diverse abilities.
My career has been education focused for over 30 years including work in public schools as a Certified Education Assistant, home educating my three children, tutoring, and work in a learning resources store. The culmination of those years of practical experience led to designing and developing LETTERS©; adaptive curriculum and resources for all learners, particularly those with diverse academic requirements.
Currently I enjoy planning, preparing, tutoring, and facilitating lessons and curriculum based on each student’s grade expectations and the Core Competencies as set out by the Ministry of Education in BC. I collaborate with BC Certified Teachers and other professionals as a team to support students while they move forward in their academic endeavors. And yes! I am now able to use the LETTERS© strategies and products with my own students.
In my downtime, I thoroughly enjoy the great outdoors with my family and friends while walking, kayaking, or hiking. I love the adventure of road trips and discovering new places. Watching movies, playing games, or researching an assortment of topics brings relaxation. Best of all, spending time with my new granddaughter brings joy beyond measure.
