Training in a good multisensory reading methodology like Orton Gillingham or Lindamood Bell should be your first step. Not only will you gain some excellent teaching techniques that are applicable to a wide veriety of learners and programs but you will gain a solid understanding of language development and the cognitive processes that contribute to the successful development of reading skills.

The best course I took was called The Special Child.

But every university has these courses. The education department or the psychology department.
