Fit Reading Help for Dyslexic Students
“Ideally, the reading instruction provided to the dyslexic child should be evidence-based, systematic, and delivered in a small group setting. Phonemic awareness and phonics should be taught explicitly. Learning should be active, with frequent teacher-child interactions. And the program should include many opportunities to practice reading, to develop fluency, to build vocabulary, to develop comprehension strategies, to write and to listen and talk about stories.”

How is Fit Learning’s approach to reading instruction different from Wilson reading System®️ or Orton-Gillingham?
“I’ve never seen reading learners make progress the way they do at Fit Learning. It adds the science of learning to an Orton-Gillingham foundation to promote accuracy, speed, and self-confidence. It’s the difference between teaching someone to read and developing someone who loves to read—and that transformation happens within a few months. It’s like Wilson on steroids!”
