[quote=Anonymous]“phonics-based reading and spelling” is probably ok for 85 percent of kids. And what does that even mean? The 15 percent or so who have dyslexia need systematic, intense phonics, both encoding and decoding, involving a hands on component. The tutor is literally attempting to rewire the areas of the brain used for reading and writing. Orton -Gillingham is the standard here but there are other types of interventions (there’s one called Reading Reflex or something like that). Look into Scottish Rite in your area. They often have free or low cost services for people with dyslexia. [/quote]
