Orton-Gillingham
Intervention

Welcome to Learn2Read!

Hi! My name is Amanda. I am the founder and sole practitioner behind Learn 2 Read, where I provide one-on-one and group Orton-Gillingham (OG) instructional sessions for students with dyslexia and other literacy-based learning differences.

As a certified OG Practitioner with OG Canada,I use the OG approach–an evidence-based approach designed to teach students how to read so that they can read to learn. The OG approach is highly structured, sequential, and multi-sensory, helping students develop literacy skills through explicit instruction in phonological awareness, decoding, spelling patterns, and reading comprehension. Rather than relying on memorization, students learn to understand the structure and patterns of the English language.

I work closely with families to create a supportive and engaging learning environment that is tailored to each child's unique, helping students to build both literacy skills and self-confidence. Whether you're just beginning to seek support or have been searching for the right fit, I’m excited to be a part of your child's education journey!

Parent Testimonial

We want to convey our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to Amanda of Learn2Read for the assistance and developmental care she has provided to our family. Without that early help, our children's success stories would be very different. Amanda's in-depth knowledge and experience in the field, goal planning, regular and clear feedback to parents, and developmental constructive support to the children through engaging sessions have all contributed to the success of their tale. Clear, regular, professional communication and customized tutoring arrangements with clear milestones and goals have all been essential components of a successful partnership and overcoming learning difficulties. Our journey really began with no idea where to begin and culminated with empowered youths with great self-esteem, academic success, and the ability to realize their full potential.

It was difficult to locate a capable specialist to assist us, but we are so grateful that we have discovered someone who is passionate about what they do and who puts their heart and soul into ensuring children's success. As parents, we collaborated with Amanda to help our children learn. We have seen firsthand how active engagement by both parties is critical to success. Amanda, thank you for helping not only our children but also us as parents through this journey!
