Adrienne Edwards tutors year-round, using the Orton-Gillingham method, at her home in the Dublin suburb of Columbus Ohio.
For over 20 years, first in Albuquerque and then in Columbus, she has tutored children of all ages in reading, writing, comprehension, language skills and some study skills. She trained and fulfilled all observational and clinical requirements in two Orton-Gillingham programs: one, an ALTA IMSLEC curriculum and the other, the AOGPE COLE curriculum used at Marburn Academy.
In addition, she trained in the Wilson Reading System and five Lindamood Bell programs, including “Visualizing and Verbalizing.”
She is on referral lists at Marburn Academy in Columbus, COBIDA, and the International Dyslexia Association (IDA). She reads widely and blogs on these and related issues at www.dyslexia.wordpress.com.
Bright students who have reading, spelling and comprehension challenges can benefit from one-to-one, structured, phonics-based Orton Gillingham tutoring.
Students commit to attending two 50-minute sessions a week, since research shows that frequency of exposure is a factor in building long-term memory. Adrienne Edwards’s fees are comparable with that of local practitioners. Please note that there is no charge for an initial meeting to talk about your child.
Feel free to call or email if you have specific questions about your situation, or Orton-Gillingham instruction in general.
Current openings: February 2012: At this time there are no open slots, but it is also true that things do change as students’ extra-curricular commitments change and as the school year proceeds.
