Our Literacy Approach
Personalized, multisensory, and equity-centered. This is how we help neurodivergent learners grow in reading and confidence.
Closing the Gap with the Right Tools
Literacy is foundational, and yet, so many neurodivergent students are left behind by traditional reading instruction. At NeuroStars Phonics Factory, we believe every child deserves access to structured, evidence-based literacy that works with how they learn, not against it. We focus on students with autism, dyslexia, ADHD, and related learning differences who are often overlooked in standard classrooms.
What Is the Orton-Gillingham Approach?
We use the Orton-Gillingham approach—a structured, multisensory method designed to help struggling readers build decoding, fluency, and spelling skills through repetition, routine, and personalized pacing. It’s systematic. It’s sequential. And it works.
Each lesson incorporates visual, auditory, and kinesthetic-tactile strategies, giving students more ways to process and retain what they’re learning.
Supporting How Our Students Learn
Our approach is specifically adapted for neurodivergent learners, including those with autism and dyslexia. We:
We teach in small, structured increments, making it easier for students to process, master, and build on new skills without feeling overwhelmed or rushed.
Lessons include repeated practice and intentional review to help solidify retention. Concepts are revisited often to support mastery and long-term confidence in foundational skills.
We incorporate social-emotional check-ins and responsive supports to help students feel safe, connected, and emotionally ready to learn—because readiness matters as much as instruction.
Every learner moves at a pace that works for them. We adjust instruction based on processing needs, using multisensory strategies that align with individual strengths.
Whether a child is homeschooled or enrolled in one of our partner schools, we meet them where they are—academically, emotionally, and developmentally.
When Literacy Becomes a Launchpad
This is more than phonics. It’s about helping children believe they can read, and then watching them do it. Through data-informed tiering, progress monitoring, and individualized support plans, we equip students not only to catch up, but to take off.
Reading success changes everything: self-esteem, classroom engagement, and long-term opportunity. We’re here to make sure no learner is left behind.
