Home, clinic, virtual and school-based services in Mexico, the U.S.,
and across the world for the English speaking population.
Literacy is a right!
Humans are not born as readers and we all need to be taught this skill set. Reading and writing is a code.
Learning this code can be extremely challenging for children with learning differences. Research tells us that all children benefit from learning to read and write using a phonological and phonetic-based, explicit, structured and systematic approach.
Young Minds Dyslexia Center uses the evidence-based, individualized Orton-Gillingham approach to help unlock literacy for children. It is often considered the “gold standard” for reading remediation. By using multisensory tools to teach phonics sequentially, students can learn cognitively and become more confident in their reading, writing, and language skills.
Every child should have access to learning the fundamental skills of reading and writing, so that they can explore and engage independently with information, allowing them to reach their fullest potential.
