For Students

Orton Gillingham (O-G) is a structured, multi-sensory approach to teaching spelling, reading, grammar, and written expression for students who struggle to read due to language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia. Jennings is a member of the Academy of Orton Gillingham at the Fellow Level.

Jennings is also a Certified Math Trainer for Orton-Gillingham International.  This approach utilizes the explicit, systematic, multi-sensory approach associated with O-G while teaching the concepts of mathematics to students who benefit from more concrete explanations. Math tutoring is currently only available as an add-on service for existing clients receiving Orton-Gillingham reading and writing services.

Tutoring sessions occur at a minimum of twice weekly for 45-60 minutes per session.  

Consultations

Initial Reading and Spelling Evaluations are available for clients as well as those seeking more information about their child's reading profile.  Reading and Spelling Evaluations include 45-90 minutes of testing, a parent interview, a comprehensive written report, as well as a consultation including recommendations and potential next steps. 

Additionally, Jennings offers consultations regarding school placement, school services, and navigating the IEP process. Please contact Jennings for more information.
