What can be done?

The Orton-Gillingham Method is the best intervention for dyslexia. This method provides a scientific reading system that is simultaneously multi-sensory, systematic, and cumulative, with direct and explicit instruction in phonemic awareness, followed by synthetic and analytic phonics with intense practice. There are several O-G systems I am certified in the Susan Barton Reading and Spelling System.
