Natalie has almost 25 years of experience and offers the gold standard of effective instruction for students with language-based learning differences such as dyslexia, which is the Orton-Gillingham Approach. The Orton-Gillingham approach falls under a Structured Literacy approach, which is multisensory, explicit, systematic, and cumulative. This approach breaks down language into manageable patterns and structures in a systematic manner. Literacy is taught in a way that is more accessible to individuals with dyslexia and struggling readers. She applies a diagnostic-prescriptive approach, which allows her to personalize instruction to target students’ areas of needed support and enhance their strengths.
