The International Dyslexia Association recommends multi-sensory teaching (a method of instruction that utilizes auditory, visual, and tactile senses) to teach reading to a dyslexic child, often referred to as an Orton-Gillingham (OG) based method of reading instruction. The Barton Reading & Spelling System provides this type of OG based instruction. A student should be be tutored for 45 minutes per session at a minimum of twice a week to be effective.
Of the many learning strategies that we attempted, we personally found that the Barton Reading & Spelling System worked best for our daughter. As a result of the progress and being eye witness to the the benefits of this type of instruction, we wanted to be able to reach out to other students with dyslexia and ADHD and help them too. Our tutoring is provided by a Certified Reading Specialist utilzing the Barton Reading and Spelling System. It is a privilege to be able to provide appropriate instruction to enable students to learn how to read.
