About
The Indianapolis Children's Dyslexia Center offers reading instruction, written language tutorial services, and intensive reading instruction for children with dyslexia. The program provides one-on-one tutoring that uses multisensory reading instruction and a sequential, multisensory phonetic approach to teaching and spelling based on the Orton-Gillingham approach. Tutor training courses are also available, including training for initial certification and advanced certification in the Orton-Gillingham approach.

• Price: Providing reading and written language tutorial services for children with dyslexia at minimal or no cost. Provide, free of charge, the highest quality multisensory reading and written language tutorial services for children with dyslexia.
The program’s mission is to provide, free of charge, multisensory reading and written language tutorial services for children with dyslexia through a network of nationally recognized centers of excellence, to promote and encourage education of professionals, tutorial trainees, and the public in teaching children to read, and to advance scientific knowledge of dyslexia through support of clinical research. Since 1994, the Scottish Rite Masons, Northern Jurisdiction, have been national leaders in an effort to address dyslexia through this charitable program, which is built on fraternal philanthropy and follows the precedent of other Masonic charities.
Tutor training requirements include 50 hours of classroom instruction and 100 hours of practicum work under the supervision of qualified professionals, tutoring two children twice a week at a Learning Center, with a minimum of a bachelor’s degree as a prerequisite for this training.
