ASDEC for Students

Teaching Success for all Learners

 

For close to three decades, ASDEC master teachers have been delivering the most powerful Orton-Gillingham teaching methods to students. Our elementary students work with Academic Therapists one-to-one and in small groups while older students work in small groups with senior ASDEC faculty members. In addition, ASDEC-trained Math Specialists bring years of experience to our programs.

In addition, ASDEC has over 25 years of experience serving children directly during the summer programs bringing the best components of our research-based training into the classroom.​​​

ASDEC Specialists Teach Sounds in Syllables

The only Orton-Gillingham based program that meets all critieria for an Intensive Tier 3 intervention program in Maryland. The program provides intensive instruction in reading, writing, spelling, and handwriting. Physical movement is added to the visual and auditory stimuli to provide multisensory learning. The hands-on aspect of the structured routines facilitates attention and concentration. The careful development of conceptual understanding and the high level of repetition reinforce memory. All activities build on the mastery of skills, which helps students build self-esteem as they experience success each day.
