- The foundation of CSI ONLiNE can be found in Hilton Ayrey's 10 years of teacher training at the New Zealand Graduate School of Education and the production of his 21 reading resources aimed clearly at reading comprehension development.
Brian's experience with 10 years of ESOL teaching, teacher training and his understanding of technology made the reading comprehension and online training merger a natural progression.
The last 4 years of research and development in online training and support systems for teacher professional development has generated a wealth of knowledge and has led to CSI ONLiNE. A clear leader in online learning in the area of reading, reading programmes and associated professional development.

Author, Hilton AYREY - BSocSci, Dip T Primary
Reading Programme Trainer - Junior and Senior School Specialist.
Hilton taught in primary schools for 18 years before taking up a position as tutor with the New Zealand Graduate School of Education, a high profile private teacher training organisation in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Over the last ten years he has developed his innovative literacy programmes for preservice and inservice teacher training. These have been extensively trialled by teaching interns as part of their training programme and have been part of whole school literacy development in a growing number of schools (recent examples - Elmwood Normal School, Christchurch, Medbury School, Christchurch, Shanghai Academy, Hong Kong).
He has also written a large number of literacy resources to support guided reading programmes including collections of stories, non fiction text, and assessment procedures.
Brian PARKER - DipT Secondary DipT Primary, Dip FA, Cambridge CTEFLA
Reading Programme Trainer - Senior School Specialist
Brian has done all his post graduate studies in education graduating as a high school art and art history teacher back in 1990. Not long after he retrained in English as a second language tutor to pursue his interest in literacy and international cultures.
Ten years later , with ten years of teaching behind him he ended his work at the Ohtani Women's University and Clark International High School in Japan to resettle back in New Zealand where he once again went back to school, retraining as a primary school teacher.
After 7 years of teaching and leading syndicates he was asked to join the team at the prestigious private teacher training college New Zealand Graduate School of Education as a primary and secondary school tutor. It was there that he formed a strong connection with Hilton Ayrey, a fellow tutor, and together they developed the online training programme CSI ONLiNE.
All teachers have found unique ways of delivering their craft regardless of their subject or content. These 'little gems' are what we call 'sharp teaching'.
