Here are 15 independent studies from public and private schools across the nation that prove the effectiveness of the Barton Reading & Spelling System.
The Orton-Gillingham Multisensory Method was developed in the early 1930's by Anna Gillingham and a group of master teachers. Dr. Samuel Orton assigned Anna's group the task of designing a whole new way of teaching the phonemic structure of our written language to people with dyslexia.
My second grade-daughter hated school and often came home crying. She complained that the other kids laughed at her. I was concerned about my daughter’s skills and horrified that she hated school! My daughter began the Barton Reading System in October. I am thrilled to report her progress. In just two months, her reading improved by 20 words per minute. She now loves school. She also loves to read. She still has more work ahead, but she loves “doing Barton.” Thank you for such a wonderful program. Susan Garcia Pleasanton, CA
