Our Specialized Programs

A time-tested, multi-sensory, structured literacy method designed for students with dyslexia and language-based learning difficulties. We break reading and writing down into manageable steps, using sight, sound, movement, and touch to reinforce learning.
Wilson Reading System®
An intensive intervention for students who struggle with decoding, fluency, and spelling. Wilson builds reading and language skills through direct, systematic instruction and is ideal for students in grades 2–12.
Lindamood-Bell Programs®
These programs strengthen sensory-cognitive functions that support reading, spelling, comprehension, and expression. It uses Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing® (LiPS®), Visualizing and Verbalizing®, Seeing Stars® and other techniques to build decoding and strong comprehension and critical thinking skills.
Moving with Math®
This program strengthens the sensory-cognitive foundations that support mathematical thinking, problem-solving, and numerical fluency.
