The Literacy Burrow specializes in tutoring for children who are struggling with their reading. Orton Gillingham tutoring can be extremely beneficial for children who have been diagnosed with dyslexia or other learning disabilities.
I have experienced first hand how frustrating it is to see your child have trouble keeping up in school, and as a parent feel completely helpless. Teachers are doing an amazing job with the resources they have been given, unfortunately classrooms are often full and students who require additional support can fall through the cracks.
A diagnosis is not necessary before you get extra support- you know your child best and what they need. If they are having difficulties, structured instruction can make all the difference before they start to lose their confidence. I believe all children have a special spark and can go on to do amazing things in their lifetime if we provide them with enough support, love and encouragement.
” I genuinely think that when someone says to you, ‘Johnny’s got dyslexia’,
you should get down on your knees, shake the child’s hand and say:
‘Well done, you lucky, lucky boy.”
