Orton-Gillingham Reading Support for Dyslexia in Greenville & New Bern

Carolina Therapy Connection offers specialized Orton-Gillingham reading support for children with dyslexia, reading difficulties, spelling challenges, and language-based learning differences in Greenville and New Bern, NC.

Our Orton-Gillingham-trained teachers provide structured, multisensory reading instruction designed to help students strengthen foundational literacy skills. This approach supports children who struggle with phonics, decoding, spelling, reading fluency, reading comprehension, written language, and confidence with schoolwork.

Orton-Gillingham is commonly used to support students with dyslexia because it teaches reading in a clear, systematic, and step-by-step way. Each session is individualized to meet the child’s learning needs and help them build skills at a pace that feels supportive and encouraging.

Families often seek Orton-Gillingham tutoring when their child has difficulty sounding out words, remembering spelling patterns, reading smoothly, understanding what they read, or keeping up with grade-level reading expectations.

At Carolina Therapy Connection, our goal is to help students become more confident readers through personalized dyslexia tutoring, reading intervention, literacy support, and educational services that meet each child where they are.

Comprehensive Educational Assessments

We believe every child learns differently, so we offer both informal and formal educational assessments. These assessments help us identify your child’s strengths and challenges and create an individualized tutoring plan tailored to their needs. Our experienced educators and therapists utilize evidence-based strategies to ensure meaningful progress.

Informal Assessments: We observe and analyze your child’s learning habits, engagement, and problem-solving skills to develop a targeted learning plan.
Formal Assessments: We conduct standardized testing and other structured evaluations to determine specific academic strengths and areas for improvement.

Initial Educational Consultation (~1 hour)

An initial education consultation is scheduled with our Educational Specialist and the child’s family/caregivers. It is during this meeting when the family has a chance to express their specific concerns and we gain a better perspective of the child’s assessment needs. A plan of action is discussed and implemented.

Educational Assessment of Academic Achievement (~2 hours)

The student is seen by our Educational Specialist and it during this time when we conduct a comprehensive evaluation to determine the student’s academic level of functioning in reading, math, writing, and language. Specific tests will be selected based on each student’s individual needs. The assessment process includes the administration of standardized and criterion-referenced tests, inventories, checklists, and observation. The comprehensive assessment will be personalized based on age, grade, and needs of the student (refer to our FAQ’s below, for a detailed outline of the educational assessment of academic achievement).

Development of a Written Report

The written evaluation report will include details of the standardized evaluation scores, data collected during the educational assessment, interpretation of scores, outline of the child’s skill levels (academic strengths and limitations), and planned interventions with individualized goals based on the child’s needs.

Follow-up consultation (~1 hour)

A follow-up consultation will be scheduled with the family/caregivers to discuss the results of the educational assessment. During this consultation, the educational specialist, along with the family/caregivers, will discuss a plan to address the child’s specific educational needs.

Total cost of the Comprehensive Educational Assessment: $425

With over 40 years of experience in education, including special education, learning disabilities, behavioral, and emotional disorders, student motivation, reluctant learners, and more, our Educational Specialist can provide solution-based services to fit the needs of each student. These include (but are not limited to):

Parental guidance and counseling to address educational concerns

Who would benefit from an Educational Assessment of Academic Achievement?

Reaching a decision to have an educational assessment typically comes after a period of struggle, distress, and various strategies to help improve the educational process. This assessment is an important step to help a student achieve success and for a parent to better understand how to address areas of concern. Results of this testing will address:

Academic achievement
Academic levels of functioning in:
- Math
- Written expression
- Language
- Reading
Academic readiness
Academic potential
Learning style
Attention difficulties
Communication skills

Results from this comprehensive assessment will provide important information in developing a plan of remediation.

What is involved in an Educational Assessment?

Educational evaluations are comprised of informal assessments, standardized tests, evaluator observation, criteria-referenced tests, checklists and interviews. Test scores are analyzed to better understand the student’s areas of learning strengths and needs. The evaluation will include specific recommendations to address what is going on with the student.

What happens after the Educational Assessment?

Once the comprehensive Educational Assessment is completed, an appointment will be scheduled with the parent to meet with our Educational Specialist. This follow-up conference will include a summary of the results and recommendations going forward to help the student achieve their greatest potential.

Do I need to complete a comprehensive educational assessment before getting started with tutoring?

No, depending on the individual child we may not need to complete the educational assessment. The student may be better suited for a placement test in order to develop the most personalized tutoring plan. We recommend contacting us to speak with our educational consultant to determine which plan is best for your child.

What information can I gain from an Educational Consultation?

Consultation and review can be very useful in determining the next best step to address educational problems. Oftentimes, there is a complexity of learning challenges (attention, behavior, speech/language, social interactions, academic) that need to be addressed. Often, a parent has questions about response and services provided by the school; needing to accurately know the areas of academic strengths and weaknesses; or the implementation of services.

Cost: $425

Address specific areas where your child may need additional support.
