Building a community to preserve and expand world-class

Orton-Gillingham instruction

and to support students with dyslexia, their teachers, tutors,

parents and the public.

We are a community dedicated to supporting students with dyslexia, their teachers, tutors, and parents.  Our priority is on training teachers and tutors in the Orton-Gillingham Approach so they can help every struggling student achieve success in school. NWDR offers in-depth, personalized instruction taught by our Accredited Training Fellow, Catherine Wyrick M.S., who is certified by the Orton-Gillingham Academy (OGA).

The NWDR Affiliated Tutor Program helps families and schools connect with professional Orton-Gillingham practitioners. Affiliated tutors use the O-G Approach with fidelity to the standards set forth by the OGA.

Resources and information on this website meet both the OGA and International Dyslexia Association standards (IDA Knowledge and Practice Standards for Teachers of Reading). All information also aligns with federally sponsored scientific research.

The Sounds to Words Manual and Appendix are newly revised. Check out the Shop page for more information and pricing.
