Orton-Gillingham Method

The Orton-Gillingham Method is a teaching approach designed to help individuals with reading and spelling challenges, especially those with dyslexia. It uses a structured, multisensory way of learning that combines visual (seeing), auditory (hearing), and kinesthetic (touching) techniques. The method breaks down language into smaller parts, such as sounds (phonemes) and letter patterns (graphophones), and teaches them explicitly and systematically. This approach helps learners understand how letters and sounds connect, improving decoding and spelling skills through personalized, repetitive practice that engages multiple senses for better retention and confidence.
