About Us
The Austin Dyslexia Reading Center offers tutoring for students from grades K-12 in both individual and small group settings based the child's individual needs.
Austin Dyslexia Reading Center has over thirty-five years of teaching experience. Allizon Coseriu received her (C.A.L.P.)Certified Academic Language Practitioner's license and certification through the Scottish Rite Dyslexia Center of Austin. She is a certified teacher and attended Texas Wesleyan for her undergraduate degree,
Penny Chilcutt is a certified dyslexia instructor in the WILSON Reading Program, B.L.S. (Basic Language Skills), Alphabetic Phonics, and M.R.S. which are Orton-Gillingham approved programs designed for the dyslexic student. She has her master's degree in special education and is a certified reading specialist.
Allizon and Penny have received extensive training through Neuhaus, Scottish Rite, Rawson Saunders, WILSON and Really Great Reading, just to name a few, to remediate the difficulties faced by dyslexic students.
The main component of an Orton-Gillingham dyslexia program is decoding (the sounding out of new words) which is presented in a multi-sensory fashion. Decoding will be the main focus for many of our students coupled with reading fluency.
Together Allizon and Penny offer your child a blended approach to improve their handwriting, phonemic awareness, sight words, reading fluency, decoding, encoding (spelling), vocabulary, morphology (study of Greek and Latin words), comprehension, phonics and written expression skills.
In addition, we offer several sessions for the parents to learn about dyslexia if requested. Please refer to the
SERVICES & SCHEDULE tab on our website to specifics about the sessions we offer.
