Pride's reading and writing program is based on Orton-Gillingham research and combines elements of listening, seeing, touching, and moving (auditory, visual, tactile and kinesthetic). The Pride program is very structured and follows a routine that begins with recognition of the letters, the sounds of the letters, and the sounds of letter combinations (phonemes). They first build a strong foundation for each student, fill in reading gaps from the past, and then move forward, step-by-step through practice and repetition. In addition to the one-on-one lessons with a certified Pride teacher, the students also utilize the latest advances in computer based reading technology to enhance learned concepts through a familiar multi-media interface. The Pride approach is unique in its ability to help students build lasting memories of learned concepts. Every child at Pride becomes an independent and confident reader!
