What is the pathway into your child’s brain? Who do they never get to BE in school? What do they do well? What is their super power?
So your Learner has a Dyslexia diagnoses. They are “behind” in school. You KNOW they are bright and capable, but it’s NOT showing up in school. They are frustrated. You are afraid.
Now what?
You call me! A mom who used to be in your exact shoes; scared for my child and her future if reading was HARD!
My Approach
Many years ago, I was a scared and frustrated mom trying desperately to help my dyslexic daughter. After many tears, I found an organization that trained me in the Orton-Gillingham method. FINALLY, I had the tools to assist my daughter! In addition to OG, I read the book The Dyslexic Advantage: Unlocking the Hidden Potential of the Dyslexic Brain by Brock L. Eide M.D. M.A. (Author), Fernette F. Eide M.D. (Author).
I discovered the need to celebrate the GENIUS of the Dyslexic Learner.
WHOLE Body Movement x OG Direct Instruction x GENIUS Coaching = Learner self confidence!

Using the large grassy field next to Wolf Creek Library, your Learner will use all of their large limbs (running, reaching, climbing, jumping) as we play OG based reading games.
Genius Coaching Pillar One - 30 min
Learners will create Good Experiences; activities they ACTIVELY make happen, enjoy, do well and are proud of! I will coach them to discover their Dependable Strength i.e. their GENIUS!

Inside, we’ll use letter tiles with OG direct instruction. They are not behind, they are where they are and I’ll meet them there with joy and confidence!
