Dyslexia Therapy & Academic Language Support Services
Welcome
We want Wimberley Dyslexia & Learning Center to be the place where you can find the best options to enhance your child's learning and address specific learning differences. Offering the best educational services and practices through multisensory structured literacy is our passion.
All of our sessions are taught by Certified Academic Language Therapists (CALT) or Certified Academic Language Practitioners (CALP).
Dyslexia Therapy
Our Certified Academic Language Therapists are experts in the field of dyslexia and reading instruction. Students in dyslexia therapy may be seen in small groups or in a one-on-one setting based on need. Dyslexia therapy is an intensive program that is explicit, systematic and cumulative in its approach and incorporates multisensory instruction into all the components of literacy development.
Academic Language Support
Some students, with or without identified dyslexia, may benefit from structured literacy components in the area of reading, spelling, and writing. This is often a good match for students who are receiving dyslexia services at school, or who may have completed a dyslexia program but would still benefit from support. Our academic tutoring sessions are tailored to the needs of our students.
Programs Used
Our Certified Academic Language Therapists (CALT) work as a partner with you, your child, and the school to develop appropriate goals and services. Some students may need intensive dyslexia therapy, while others may need academic language support. Based on the needs and goals of your child, a tailored program will be determined.
Our CALTs are trained in multiple Orton-Gillingham programs endorsed by the International Dyslexia Association (IDA), including:
- Take Flight: A Comprehensive Intervention for Students with Dyslexia
- Pre-Flight
- Basic Language Skills
- Scientific Spelling
- Developing Metacognitive Skills
- Reading Readiness
- History of the English Language
- Rewards
- The Writing Revolution
- From Listening to Writing
Testimonials
"Casey is our hidden gem in Wimberley! She has helped turn our son's obstacles into hurdles that he's clearing steadily! His confidence and ability have soared since working with her. We are so grateful." Christina
"Katy has been our son's therapist for several months now, and I don't know what we'd do without her. She is a talented teacher with a gift for patiently guiding our son through his sessions and it never feels like work to him. His self-confidence has improved, he is better able to navigate through his school work, and he really looks forward to his sessions each week." Tina
