Dyslexia Support & Learning Intervention in Montreal

At Strategic Learning Clinic, we provide structured dyslexia support programs designed to strengthen reading, spelling, phonological processing, and academic confidence for children and teens. Our personalized approach combines evidence-informed strategies, targeted reading intervention, and ongoing support plans tailored to each student’s needs.

If your child struggles with reading fluency, decoding, or written expression despite effort and support, we help you identify skill gaps and build a strong learning foundation.

Learning with Dyslexia

Dyslexia is a common learning difference that affects the way the brain processes language, leading to challenges with reading, spelling, and written expression, even when intelligence and effort are strong. 

When a student is struggling with reading or any particular subject, for that matter, the first thought is to seek out tutoring services. The reality is that traditional, content-based tutoring for dyslexia is not designed to help your child learn how to read or write. What’s needed is a remedial-based approach that develops foundational skills and closes learning gaps. The best types of reading programs for dyslexia are those that engage the auditory, visual, kinaesthetic, and tactile pathways. A multi-sensory method for early literacy development will be the most successful in bringing your child up to grade level.

Dyslexia Intervention Programs for Kids with Dyslexia

Strategic Learning Clinic offers two remedial dyslexia reading programs, one in English and one in French. The Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program® (LiPS) is a multisensory program for students who have difficulty with English decoding and spelling and who have underdeveloped phonological awareness and reading skills. The LiPS® Program is unique in that it helps students explore phonemes through the oral-motor movements that produce the sounds. This approach allows students to hear, see, and feel the physical characteristics of phonemes, and the contrasts between them. Enseignement multisensoriel simultané® (EMS) is a multi-sensory reading program in French, which simultaneously uses visual, auditory, tactile, and kinaesthetic pathways to teach accurate decoding, spelling, and reading comprehension skills. This program is based on the renowned multi-sensory Orton-Gillingham method of teaching reading and spelling.

Multi-sensory teaching also provides students with a key component: repetition. In using a structured approach, these dyslexia programs can be implemented intensively and one-on-one to ensure the best results. They focus on building phonological awareness skills by focusing on rhyming, simple and complex syllables, and sound groupings.

When Should Parents Consider Dyslexia Support?

Many parents ask: “Is this just a reading delay or something that needs specialized intervention?”

If your child continues to struggle with:

  • Reading fluency despite practice
  • Difficulty linking letters to sounds
  • Spelling errors that don’t improve with typical tutoring
  • Slow or effortful reading that impacts confidence and school performance

then structured dyslexia support may be more effective than subject-focused tutoring. At Strategic Learning Clinic, we focus on skill development behind reading, not just practice.

How Our Dyslexia Support Program Works

Our dyslexia support combines targeted intervention and structured learning strategies to strengthen reading and related skills.

Our approach may include:

  • Structured reading intervention and decoding strategies
  • Phonological awareness training
  • Spelling and writing support
  • Ongoing progress monitoring and plan adjustment

Each program is personalized based on your child’s assessment and learning profile.

What Improvements Can Parents Expect?

While progress varies, students who engage with our dyslexia support often show:

  • Stronger reading fluency and accuracy
  • Improved decoding and word recognition
  • Better spelling and written expression
  • Greater confidence in academic tasks
  • Improved engagement and independence

Tutoring Expert F.A.Q.

Dyslexia is defined as having a difficulty with the alphabet, reading, writing, and spelling in spite of normal to above average intelligence, conventional teaching, and adequate socio-cultural opportunity. Dyslexia is a word commonly used to describe so many different reading and spelling problems. It encompasses many language difficulties and does not just mean the “person who sees the word backwards.” Children with dyslexia may be bright, have good vocabulary skills, and may even do well with numbers and math, but reading and spelling are hard. If you have been told that your child has dyslexia or you are concerned about their reading and spelling skills, we can help.

Strategic Learning Centre is known for its specific expertise in this area. We offer many specialized programs, including one for children with dyslexia. The Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing® Program is a unique and effective reading and spelling program that allows students to “unglue” the individual sounds in words. This program is very different from any other reading program taught in either public or private schools or other learning centers in the Montreal area.

Strategic Learning often recommends a combination of remedial and neuroplasticity programs to address your child’s reading impairment in decoding, fluency, and/or comprehension. Optimal results are obtained when these programs are done in conjunction with one another. 

For over 33 years, Strategic Learning has been one of the acknowledged experts in remedial reading instruction in North America. Our process, proven programs, and outstanding dedicated teachers all contribute to our students’ enormous success over that time. 

Children with diagnosed reading impairments become successful decoders with renowned remedial programs such as the ones we have used with enormous success for decades. Our programs are multi-sensory-based and bridge the auditory and visual pathways.

Reading support often focuses on homework help and practice. Dyslexia intervention targets the underlying skills, phonological processing, decoding, and structured literacy techniques, that drive reading ability.

Improvement timelines vary. Many families see measurable gains in reading accuracy and confidence within a few months of structured intervention, with continued growth over time.

No. Tutoring focuses on content help, while dyslexia support strengthens the underlying reading system with evidence-based strategies.

Dyslexia support can begin as soon as signs are noticed, typically when reading skills start forming, often in early elementary school, but benefits can be seen at older ages too.

Our programs are structured to supplement school learning and improve independent academic skills, reducing frustration and increasing long-term success.
