Confidence is Priceless

After years of teaching Orton-Gillingham (OG), Cole realized that certified, multisensory strategies are largely only available through private tutors, like herself.

“There is no comprehension strategy powerful enough to compensate if a student cannot read the words.”

Did you know that the human body, not just the brain, is a powerful learning tool? Each fingertip is equipped with over 3,000 touch receptors––messengers to the brain. Our vocal cords hold the key to differentiating sounds as they vibrate, or don’t vibrate. Our brains, like magic, form new pathways between the left and right hemispheres when the midline of the body is crossed, building a more integrated brain.

Standard education caters to the eyes and ears, but leaves learners’ bodies sitting still at a desk.

Learn more about the power of multisensory methods of mastering literacy.

Our mission is access

OG is currently only available through expensive certified tutors, or getting certified yourself.

Most accessible reading tools online are too childish for students still struggling to read & spell.

Access = a bridge to self-confidence, academic & professional success, and the ability to pursue their dreams.

"People assume dyslexics hate to read, when quite often, what we really hate is being confused, intimidated, and embarrassed by our struggles with reading."
