Reading is an extremely challenging experience for children who live with dyslexia. This neurologically based disorder interferes with the child’s ability to acquire and process language. Dyslexia varies in its severity and is manifested by difficulties in reading, writing, spelling, handwriting, and sometimes in arithmetic. It is not the result of lack of motivation, sensory impairment, inadequate instructional or environmental opportunities, or other limiting conditions, but it may occur together with these conditions.
Although it is not curable, individuals with dyslexia frequently respond successfully to timely and appropriate intervention. People with dyslexia can learn, but they must be taught in a manner appropriate to their particular strengths and weaknesses.
We help children discover the world through reading. We provide, without financial obligation to the students or their families, state-of-the-art, multisensory tutorial reading and written-language intervention of the highest quality to children who are dyslexic.
We train tutors in the art, science, and practice of using the Orton-Gillingham approach to multisensory teaching of reading, spelling, and writing. We expand literacy training and parent education in the tri-state community.
