Learning Atrium is a year-round provider that offers Structured Literacy (Orton-Gillingham) guidance to dyslexic students in local Catholic schools and private schools.

We provide tutoring in reading and spelling to students who match the profile of dyslexia and other learning differences. We provide the tools these students need to excel in their learning so they can focus on their gifts and all their academics.

We provide support and guidance to parents and teachers, so they know how to support the dyslexic learner in the classroom and at home. While our area of expertise is dyslexia, the programs we offer are data-proven and research-based to aid any individual struggling with reading and spelling.
