Dyslexia Services

It is a common misconception that dyslexia is a vision issue; however, dyslexia is a brain-based language learning difference.

At The Study Hub, we have trained professionals who use a multi-sensory language-based curriculum to meet student’s needs.

Students who struggle with dyslexia need phonological decoding and encoding to become successful readers. We usually recommend 2-3, one-on-one sessions per week for this type of reading program. The Study Hub uses Orton Gillingham approach to aid students with dyslexia. 

Our Dyslexia Tutoring Fees are $60/hr.

Orton Gillingham Approach

  • Direct, systematic instruction

  • Teaches how to fluently and accurately decode

  • Interactive and multisensory

  • Teaches students to encode (spell) while they learn to decode 

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT…

Meet Dr. Barbara Bayless,

Dr. Barbara Bayless began teaching struggling readers identified with dyslexia almost a decade ago. Her passion as a public-school reading specialist to know more about why some students struggle to “break the code” led her to further research and on to a Ph.D. from the University of Oklahoma. Her doctoral research focused on the experiences and perspectives of how children with dyslexia experience school. Read Dissertation
