Orton-Gillingham Dyslexia Interventions
Structured, explicit, and cumulative literacy instruction to build accurate, fluent, and confident reading.
What is dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a language-based learning difference. Children with dyslexia are often bright and capable, but they need direct teaching to connect letters, sounds, spelling patterns, and words in a way that "sticks."
What is Orton-Gillingham?
Orton-Gillingham is a step-by-step way of teaching reading and spelling. It uses clear routines, multisensory practice, and small, logical steps so children can build skills with confidence.
Parent Q&A
Q: What is dyslexia, in simple terms?
A: Dyslexia means reading and spelling are harder because the brain processes language differently. It is not caused by low intelligence, poor effort, or bad parenting. With the right instruction, children with dyslexia make strong progress.
Q: What is Orton-Gillingham in family-friendly terms?
A: Think of Orton-Gillingham as a reading roadmap. Instead of guessing words, children are shown exactly how sounds and letters work together. They see it, say it, hear it, and write it, which helps learning become more durable.
Q: Why do many children with dyslexia respond better to OG than common school curriculums?
A: Many general curriculums move quickly and assume children will pick up patterns naturally. OG is different: it is explicit, systematic, cumulative, and tailored to the child. This reduces confusion, builds mastery step by step, and supports lasting reading and spelling growth.
