Orton Gillingham Approach
Our organization employs the Orton Gillingham Approach to examine the needs of Dyslexic students and implement strategies which increase their desire to learn. In many instances, Dyslexic students are more creative than the average student. Their creativity is often ignored while their failures are highlighted. The continued lack of success causes frustration. After learning multi-sensory strategies, the level of frustrations considerably reduced. This reduced frustration level is partially due to precise, structured, consistent learning provided during the instruction, The multi-sensory approach uses three pathways of learning: Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic-Tactile.
