Why This Course Matters for Educators

Every teacher has faced that moment, a student is bright, curious, and capable… but the words on the page just won’t click. Traditional methods aren’t enough, and you need tools that actually work.

That’s where O-G “Plus” comes in. This IDA-accredited 60-hour training combines the proven Orton-Gillingham approach with phonological awareness and fluency strategies grounded in the latest research from the National Institutes of Health and the National Reading Panel.

By the end of the course, you won’t just know about structured literacy, you’ll have 131 ready-to-use lesson plans, a scope and sequence for guiding instruction, a progress monitoring tool to track real results, and a multi-sensory materials kit to bring learning to life. You’ll leave with the skills and confidence to help struggling readers make measurable, lasting progress.

Why Families Should Care

When teachers have the right training, students don’t just improve in reading, they gain confidence, independence, and a love for learning. Families often notice the change almost immediately: homework becomes less stressful, frustration levels drop, and reading time feels more like discovery than a chore.

For parents, this means your child’s teacher is equipped with research-backed, practical tools that are tailored to how the brain learns to read. And if you’re a parent looking to tutor or support your own child, this training will give you the same tools professionals use in schools nationwide.
