[quote=Anonymous]I'm a dyslexia tutor. We work with lots of kids in middle and high school, and yes, a 14-year-old can still become a fluent reader! The older students actually realize how much they're learning and often really appreciate it - we've had high school students we're tutoring tell their parents this is life-changing. Orton-Gillingham is great for teaching phonics, but it's not enough. Most kids with dyslexia have weak phonological skills, and he needs those to be strong in order to become a fluent reader. There's more info on our website - look for Kids Up Reading Coaches. I've heard mixed things about Lindamood-Bell, including that it's very expensive and very rigid. But I don't have any experience with it myself.[/quote]
