Our Smartplus Program for Dyslexia incorporates components of the Advanced
Integration Program, Focus Coaching and work in reading and spelling using an
Orton-Gillingham influenced multisensory system recommended by the

There is no magical cure or method that will fix or cure dyslexia. Dyslexia is a processing style that a
person is born with and it is a component of how their brain works. Our Smartplus program can help
your student with reading, writing, and spelling frustration and failure often associated with dyslexia.
These methods will take time, anywhere from one to three years.
retrain the student to successfully overcome dyslexic symptoms. The program requires a minimum
number of sessions per week, depending on the student's individual plan, in order to be effective.
Intensity is the key in intervention that will change how the brain works and perceives. The goal of
our program is to successfully have the dyslexic student reading and spelling at the ninth grade level.
An average dyslexic student will demonstrate observable improvements after 24 sessions and will
continue to improve throughout the program.
