Blue Moose Literacy’s Mission

We have deep knowledge in the science of reading and the needs of dyslexic students. With training in the behavioral sciences, an extensive background in speech and language development, and years of hands-on experience using the Orton-Gillingham approach, we seek to integrate that knowledge into all we do. We stand on the wisdom of our pioneers while integrating current research in reading and cognitive science.

We believe every child is unique and deserves individualized diagnostic-prescriptive instruction tailored to their specific needs while building upon their strengths and interests. Providing this type of instruction requires significant time and effort. Therefore, our goal is to share our experience and expertise to help you be as effective as possible in delivering individualized Orton-Gillingham instruction.

We also strongly believe in the importance of taking care of ourselves and making time for our family and friends. For that reason, we also want to help you be as efficient as possible so you can make time for the important areas of your life.

By making effective structured literacy instruction accessible and practical for educators and parents alike, we aim to reach every student on their journey to achieve literacy and, in turn, transform the state of education — one educator at a time.
