Orton-Gillingham Therapy for Literacy Instruction & Dyslexia

Multisensory Phonics Instruction

The Orton-Gillingham (OG) approach is a language-based, multisensory, structured, and cumulative method designed to help students build a strong foundation in literacy and become confident, capable readers and writers. Backed by decades of research and proven success, OG has consistently helped students overcome reading and spelling challenges.

​

Each OG session is both diagnostic and prescriptive—carefully tailored to meet the individual needs of the student. Lessons follow a highly structured format, focusing on the development of decoding (reading) and encoding (spelling) skills.

​

What sets OG apart is its explicit, systematic instruction that engages multiple learning pathways—visual, auditory, and kinesthetic—to reinforce concepts and support long-term retention. Originally developed for individuals with dyslexia, OG is effective for a wide range of language-based learning differences and for any student who benefits from intensive, structured literacy instruction.
