I am pleased to now offer multisensory math tutoring to children in grades K-5. The Multisensory Math  Approach has been developed by Marilyn Zecher, M.A., CALT, a certified academic language therapist and specialist in working with student who have dyslexia and related learning disabilities. 

 

"The Multisensory Math Program is an outgrowth of an effort to apply strategies from evidence based reading instruction to conceptually based mathematics instruction.  It is truly Orton-Gillingham based math instruction.  While the methods were originally created to meet the needs of diverse learners, they do meet current evidence supporting instruction for all learners.  In fact, more and more curricula suggest using manipulatives to guide concept development.  The difference with this program is the emphasis on the instructional language.  For some students, the language of instruction is the critical link to concept formation and the development of skills toward application. The Multisensory Math Program advocates a Concrete-Representational-Abstract Instructional Sequence and explicit language to make math concepts memorable."​www.multisensorymath.com
