The Orton Gillingham Approach

100 Years of Reading Success, Now Simplified For Your Homeschool.

You don’t need credentials to succeed—you just need a system that works. At your kitchen table, you’ll have the same tools that have helped children for nearly 100 years. Every lesson is laid out, every story is decodable, and every step is clear, so you can confidently guide your child to reading success.

A Struggle Many Parents Know All Too Well

If you’re here, you probably know the worry. You’ve sat at the table with your child, sounding out the same word over and over, only to watch the frustration grow. You’ve wondered why the school didn’t notice the struggle sooner—or why, even after years of instruction, your child still isn’t reading with ease.

 

The truth is, most schools aren’t equipped to diagnose or address reading difficulties properly. Children slip through the cracks. They’re told to “try harder” or to “guess the word from context.” But guessing isn’t reading—and you can see it in your child’s eyes when the words just don’t make sense.

Reading Intervention Is Personal For Us

We started Homeschool Companions because we’ve lived this story ourselves. As parents and educators, we saw too many children—bright, curious, capable—struggling to read because no one gave them the right tools. We watched families grow discouraged, convinced something was “wrong” with their child, when in reality the system had failed them.

That’s why we turned to the Orton-Gillingham approach. It’s been used successfully for nearly 100 years, especially with children who learn differently. It’s not a quick fix or a trendy method—it’s a time-tested, research-based approach that has helped thousands of learners finally unlock the code of reading.

A Simple, Three-Step Process

Step - 1

Skill Check – Use our screener to quickly find out where you should start.

Step - 2

Teach the Sound – Introduce a single phonics sound with our phonemic awareness lessons.

Step - 3

Phonics Practice – Immediately follow up with phonics practice and decodable books that match the sounds. 

No jargon. No overwhelming teacher manuals. Just a roadmap that works—one lesson at a time.

No Teaching Degree Required

One of the biggest fears homeschool parents have is: 

 

“I’m not a teacher. Can I really do this?”


The answer is a resounding yes.

Our program was designed for parents with no formal training. Each lesson is scripted and easy to follow. 

 

We guide you through exactly what to say, what to show, and how to help your child succeed. If you can sit beside your child and encourage them, you can use this program.

Unlike typical classroom reading instruction—which often emphasizes memorization or guessing—this approach is multi-sensory, explicit, and cumulative. 

 

Children see it, say it, hear it, write it, and practice it in meaningful ways until it sticks.

 

And, you get everything, instantly in your email.

Filling the Gaps Schools Can’t

Many parents come to us after years of frustration with the school system. Their child was never given a proper evaluation. Their struggles were minimized or overlooked. Or worse, they were told their child would “catch up eventually.”

But reading isn’t something children just “pick up.” They need explicit, structured instruction—and that’s exactly what Orton-Gillingham provides.

With this program, you become your child’s best advocate. You’re not waiting on a school to act. You’re taking control, giving your child the tools they need right now.
