Your child is smart.
They just need the right kind of teaching.
Specialized literacy intervention and dyslexia assessment for students in grades K–8 — using Orton-Gillingham and science of reading methods that work for the way your child's brain is wired.
Structured literacy intervention that actually works.
At Open Book Literacy, I use the Orton-Gillingham approach — the gold standard in reading intervention, and the method most recommended for students with dyslexia and other language-based learning differences.
Every session is individualized. Every plan is built around your child's specific profile. And every decision I make is grounded in the science of reading — not guesswork.
Whether your child needs a comprehensive literacy evaluation, intensive 1:1 intervention, or ongoing school support — I provide the expertise, the structure, and the roadmap to get them reading.
I work with students who:
- Are in grades K–8 and struggling to read or spell
- Are falling behind grade level despite effort and support
- Have been diagnosed with dyslexia, ADHD, or a language-based learning difference
- Have never been evaluated but parents suspect something more is going on
- Need more intensive, individualized intervention
“Lizzie has been our child’s reading tutor for the past two and a half years. When they began, he was far below grade level and extremely resistant to reading. Now, he’s at grade level and enthusiastically reading on his own for pleasure. Lizzie is conscientious, creative, professional, and our kid loves his time with her. We hit the jackpot and couldn’t have asked for a better tutoring experience.”
Where would you like to start?
-
You're noticing signs of a reading struggle, or you've been told by a teacher that your child is behind and you want real answers.
An evaluation will give you a clear picture of how your child reads, where the gaps are, and exactly what they need. This is the right starting point if you don't yet have a diagnosis or a formal plan.
-
You already know your child needs help — now you want to act.
Orton-Gillingham literacy intervention is intensive, individualized, and built specifically for students who haven't responded to typical reading instruction.
This is where real progress happens.

That's completely okay — and honestly, it's where most families start.
