Dyslexia Services

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

Instructors are trained in the Wilson Reading System to empower students to decode, encode, read, create, and understand the written word. The Wilson Reading System utilizes an Orton Gillingham approach to help students master the decoding and encoding of all six syllable types, which are taught in a systematic, explicit, and multisensory manner. 

Each Wilson lesson is composed of ten parts that enable students to become fluent decoders and encoders. Each lesson focuses on direct instruction in phonemic awareness, decoding, word study, sight words, spelling, fluency, vocabulary, oral expressive language, and comprehension.

Each student is able to progress through the program at his/her own pace. Students are instructed individually to gain mastery prior to moving on to the next concept.  Mastery of each step builds a strong foundation for success as students move through the necessary sequence of concepts to become proficient readers and writers. 

Our Dyslexia Tutoring Fees are $50/hr.

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
