Ensuring every child’s right to learn to read.
Our Mission
The National Educational Support Trust, USA, called NEST, is a nonprofit organization committed to serving teachers and students with the most up to date research based language and literacy materials. Our projects reach classrooms worldwide through the use of onsite volunteers and a web based curriculum delivery system called WordScientists.org, designed to scale up our success on a global scale.
In everything we do, we aim to:

WordScientists.org is a culmination of over 15 years of scientific literacy research into curriculum and activities for teachers, students and parents.

Make literacy accessible for every child
All books, lesson plans, and teacher training videos are available free of charge and in various formats to account for lack of resources.
Empower teachers to teach early literacy
We don’t just provide lesson plans and free books for any classroom—we train teachers so our efforts have true impact, year after year.
