Reading therapy offers students a sequential, cumulative, and comprehensive approach to teaching reading. This method is designed to especially help students with dyslexia, but can aid anyone struggling with reading. Some concepts emphasized are the 44 speech sounds, alphabet, syllable types, syllable division patterns, structural analysis, Latin roots and Greek combining forms as well as comprehension strategies.

With 13 years' experience in this method (as a Certified Academic Language Therapist for the past 10) in individual and group settings, in homes and in schools, and with a wide array of ages, I offer hope for those who are discouraged by past failure! With the right method anyone can learn to read.

Phonics

As a classroom teacher I have taught mainly in the lower elementary grades and in schools that emphasized the importance of a good foundation in phonics. Although no longer a classroom teacher, I am trained as an Academic Language Therapist. We are trained in intensive phonics and are generally quite successful in helping struggling readers.
Reading

Reading

As an academic language/reading therapist I have over twenty years experience helping students of all ages who have struggled with learning to read. The Orton-Gillingham based program used teaches the structure of the English language in incremental, sequential, multi-sensory layers that give students a strong foundation for reading success.
