You’ve probably spent a lot of time researching what’s out there to help your learner with dyslexia become a successful reader, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. When reading itself is hard, finding the right solution can feel just as hard. So what is it about Online Reading Tutor that makes us effective?
What sets our program apart
- A free screening assessment that identifies your learner’s unique skill gaps
- Customized lessons that directly train those gaps
- Unlimited access for frequent practice in short sessions, with no scheduling around a tutor’s calendar
- Orton-Gillingham based lessons, the gold standard for helping struggling readers
Built on the science of reading
At Online Reading Tutor, we use a systematic, scientifically proven approach that mirrors what research tells us about how the brain learns to read, building from phonemic awareness all the way through to reading comprehension.
Our students train 6 to 7 days a week in short 20-30 minute sessions to get the best results, using Orton-Gillingham based lessons, the gold-standard method for readers with dyslexia.
20+ years of experience
Online Reading Tutor founder Bob Almack has spent more than 20 years helping students with dyslexia become proficient readers. Based on our experience with thousands of students, we’ve seen that when reading becomes automatic and effortless, comprehension improves dramatically.
But more than anything, what sets us apart is our commitment to helping every learner reach grade-level reading comprehension.
Real results, no contracts required
We’re confident enough in our program that we don’t require contracts. Families stay with Online Reading Tutor because they see meaningful improvement within about 30 hours of on-task training (roughly 2-3 months at 20-30 minutes a day). Many of our learners with dyslexia or a reading delay improve by an average of 3 grade levels after completing their training stream.
