First Light Learning Services
Dyslexia Therapy
First Light Learning’s main purpose is individual or small group dyslexia therapy for anyone age 7 through adulthood. A custom program is built for each individual’s needs using IDA accredited multi-sensory Structured Literacy. Lessons are created using the expertise of a Certified Academic Language Therapist (CALT) and evolves as each student progresses.
Sessions range from 45-60 minutes each.
We recommend 3-5 days a week.
Supporting Educators
Whether you’re a parent or teacher, you can feel like you’ve tried every trick in the book… and online! I would love to help you think outside the box and add to what you already know and use.
Tutoring
Sometimes there are other things you’d like help with. Tutoring services are available in all content areas grades K-9 on a case by case basis.
Knowing about dyslexia is just the beginning. With the right tools, most people can become confident readers and writers. Getting started with identification and treatment is the key.
Dyslexia Basics
What is reading?
Teaching Reading
Reading is an invention of random symbols that put our voice on paper.
Unfortunately, many reading programs, such as Balanced Literacy or Guided Reading, don’t work for struggling readers. For years, research has found that Structured Literacy works best. The cool thing is that there’s loads of evidence showing it works for all readers not just those with dyslexia.
