Meet the Team

David Morgan

Founder, CEO

I have a BSc in Mechanical Engineering and a Masters in Education. Before becoming a literacy specialist, I worked as a business manager and before that a cavalry officer in the British Army. They say variety is the spice of life! My favorite things are all forms of music, skiing, anything that floats on water and times with my family, preferably somewhere warm.

Sarah Forrest

US Schools Manager

I have a B.A. in Spanish Lit from Yale University. I help oversee our children’s literacy programs and also dabble in copywriting, marketing, training, and content creation at DM Ed. I live with my family in North Carolina, where I love to eat chocolate chips, sit in the sunshine and sing. Not (usually) all at once.

Eleanor Broome

Program Advisor, Design Lead

I grew up in New Zealand but now live in Oxford where I did my degree in French literature. When I am not chatting with Easyread parents and learners, I like to go on dog walks, get food with friends and become tangled in wool as I attempt to knit and crochet.

Akash Nikolas

Program Advisor

I studied English at Columbia University and I enjoy reading and writing about films and pop culture. I encourage your kids to tell me all about their favorite movies, TV shows and video games!

Matt Bradshaw

Developer

I create games and activities for David Morgan Education courses, as well as maintaining the behind-the-scenes code. I live in Oxford and spend my spare time inventing electronic musical instruments.

Lucy Czech

Program Advisor

I have a BA (hons) in Primary Education from the University of Sheffield. I was a classroom teacher for 20 years, with a passion for early reading and phonics. I love travelling to new countries and experiencing different cultures. In my spare time, I enjoy walks by the coast and photography.

Laser Focus

We will not rest until every child has access to our visual phonics methodology. We are single-minded in our aim to eradicate childhood illiteracy.

Innovation

We do not tread well-worn paths. We push the boundaries to find success for every child, using adaptive technology and tailored personal support.

It's Personal

Our purpose is our passion. We care deeply about the families we work with, and their children’s educational outcomes. A lot is at stake.

Child-First

Everything we do is for children’s learning and enjoyment. Kids like to play to learn (us too)! Nothing boring leaves our design studio.
