[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've also had some success with grad students who are studying special ed. Sometimes it's hard to find an OG certified instructor and they can be over booked. We've had some really talented students use All About Reading with my dyslexic DS with good results.[/quote] Just wanted to chime in and make sure anyone looking to hire a tutor knows there is a difference between OG trained and OG certified. MCPS is now training staff, so there are a lot of teachers who can say they have been OG trained. That’s a 30 hour course with an instructor and modeling but no work with students. After the training teachers are able to use OG in classrooms/for interventions. To be certified in OG, there are hundreds of hours of practice with a student, and a practicum supervisor giving feedback after observations. I didn’t know the difference at first, and wanted to pass along what I’ve learned![/quote]
