IMSE Orton-Gillingham
Every child should be able to read. We're on a mission to help teachers make that happen. For 25 years, IMSE has been training educators how to teach reading more effectively using a proven, multi-sensory approach called Orton-Gillingham. All of IMSE's instructors are CERI-certified educators who have used Orton-Gillingham in the classroom. We understand the challenges that teachers face in a modern, diverse classroom. We know what it's like to watch kids struggle to read. Orton-Gillingham allows children to break down how and why letters and words sound the way they do. Using multiple senses, children can better understand the rules of the English language. This is effective in the classroom because it allows educators to teach children in the way that each individual child learns best. IMSE offers private, customized Orton-Gillingham trainings for your school district, as well as public trainings nation-wide. Find an IMSE training near you: https://www.imse.com/training/
