Christy Schweppe, Director

Orton-Gillingham Tutoring Cincinnati, Ohio

Many students need direct, explicit, and carefully scaffolded Orton-Gillingham instruction. Through my Master’s degrees in Special Education and Reading Science, along with extensive Orton-Gillingham training, I have developed expertise in designing highly individualized and structured literacy lessons. I specialize in helping severely struggling readers with complex learning needs become confident, fluent readers. Each lesson is thoughtfully scaffolded and tailored to meet your child’s unique needs. I also provide regular progress updates and at-home practice materials to help families extend learning beyond our sessions.
