"The Orton-Gillingham Approach always is focused upon the learning needs of the individual student. Orton-Gillingham (OG) practitioners design lessons and materials to work with students at the level they present by pacing instruction and the introduction of new materials to their individual strengths and weaknesses. Students with dyslexia need to master the same basic knowledge about language and its relationship to our writing system as any who seek to become competent readers and writers. However, because of their dyslexia, they need more help than most people in sorting, recognizing, and organizing the raw materials of language for thinking and use. Language elements that non-dyslexic learners acquire easily must be taught directly and systematically."

At Masina Learning we use the Orton-Gillingham approach to provide individualized lessons that meet the needs of each learner. Our approach is systematic and explicit to develop the skills needed for reading. Our lessons also provide many opportunities for multi-sensory learning and consistent review to ensure acquired skills are permanently retained.
