Although Orton-Gillingham has long been associated with dyslexia, many educators have spent decades pushing for the curriculum in every classroom.  The Orton-Gillingham approach is an evidence-based, scientific approach to reading and writing instruction and involves direct, explicit, systematic and multisensory elements.  In particular, it works well for non-native English speakers - commonly referred to as “ELLs” or “English Language Learners.   Recent U.S. Census numbers show that currently about one in five public school students live in a home where English is not the primary language spoken.
