[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PS - I'm the PP above - the 2 techniques are Wilson and Orton Gillingham approaches. We tried both and while more expensive in finding a trained tutor to do, the latter was much more effective. We did Wilson for a year with a tutor and it was Ok but we saw much more improvement and quicker results with Orton. Note both approaches have milestones to reach so it takes time to complete the training. I forget now how long it takes but I think like 2 years if you do it really religiously. For us it was roughly 2 1/2 years I think for our severely dyslexic + ADHD kid (who really focused and didn't have an issue with learning) but we did it a lot because we were lucky enough that the first yr his English teacher was trained in Wilson in school. [/quote]Barton also uses Orton Gillingham techniques.[/quote]
