Classroom Disconnect
What is the Orton-Gillingham (OG) Approach?
What is the Orton-Gillingham (OG) Approach?
With five years of teaching experience, I have seen firsthand how students who learn differently often struggle in traditional classroom settings. Many parents may attribute attention challenges to disorders, but the key question to consider is whether their child is receiving the necessary engagement and support to effectively absorb information.

What is the Orton-Gillingham (OG) Approach?
Orton-Gillingham (OG) is diagnostic and prescriptive, meaning that instead of a general classroom approach, OG lessons are tailored to each student's unique learning needs. Using a structured, multisensory method, OG breaks down reading and spelling into manageable steps. Through visual, auditory, and hands-on techniques, OG helps students absorb, retain, and apply the material effectively.
