Designed to help students with dyslexia become confident, capable readers.
Orton-Gillingham (OG) is multisensory, structured, and flexible—meaning students learn through seeing, hearing, moving, and touching, while lessons are carefully sequenced and tailored to each child’s needs. OG builds strong foundations in phonics, spelling, and language structure, empowering students to decode words with confidence and unlock reading success.
OG gives your child the tools they need to succeed as a reader and writer. This highly effective approach focuses on building skills step by step in a clear, emotionally-sound way. Using hands-on, multisensory strategies, along with specific feedback, students don’t just memorize words—they truly understand how language works. The result is greater confidence, stronger reading skills, and a renewed sense of accomplishment in the classroom.
As students move into the upper grades, Orton-Gillingham instruction expands beyond phonics to include morphology—the study of prefixes, suffixes, and root words. This deeper focus helps older learners unlock the meaning of more complex vocabulary, improve spelling, and strengthen comprehension across all subjects. By understanding how words are built, students gain powerful strategies for decoding unfamiliar terms and navigating advanced reading with confidence.
The emotional impact of instruction that truly understands the dyslexic mind cannot be overstated.
For many dyslexic students, school has often felt confusing, discouraging, or overwhelming.
Orton-Gillingham changes that experience by providing instruction that actually fits the way their brains learn.
When students feel understood– and when lessons finally make sense– the emotional shift is powerful. Their confidence grows, anxiety fades, and they begin to see themselves as capable learners. With the right approach, students rediscover their strengths, take pride in their progress, and build a healthier, more positive relationship with school and themselves.
