Reading

Embracing the amazing in each child, Orlando tutor and learning specialist Margie Thompson sets out to help children become the authors of their own success stories.  Margie has a particular interest and expertise in the area of literacy development.  ​

Books

She is an Orton-Gilllingham trained reading therapist specializing in the intervention and remediation of dyslexia and other reading deficits.   She is also highly trained and experienced in implementing successful remedial reading strategies using a variety of programs including  the internationally-recognized and research-validated Lindamood-Bell® Learning Processes® Programs*: 

        

  • Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program for Reading, Spelling, and Speech® (LiPS)®

  • Seeing Stars Program for Reading Fluency and Spelling®

  • Visualizing and Verbalizing for Language Comprehension and Thinking® (V/V)®

Executive Functioning Skills

A solid foundation of Executive Functioning skills – planning, organization, time management, problem solving, self-monitoring, and critical thinking – helps set up a student for success. Margie Thompson employs Feuerstein’s Instrumental Enrichment (FIE) Program to aid students in mastering these critical skill sets.

This program has been used successfully worldwide to advance the learning potential and cognitive functioning of students.

Enrichment Tutoring

If you believe that your child’s grades or test scores do not reflect his or her true potential, Margie can offer support. Enrichment tutoring can help your child whether he or she needs to catch up, maintain, or get ahead.

Enrichment tutoring can teach your child how to learn and become an independent learner. Every program is individualized to build on the child’s strengths.

Math

Is your child failing his/her state math tests?  Is his/her math homework a struggle every single night? Does your child struggle to learn and remember basic math facts, even after a night of flashcard practice?  If so, Margie offers solutions using the Nanci Bell On Cloud Nine Math Program.® 

What makes this program different from the other programs available? The answer is simply, imagery.  Research shows that imagery is often the missing link in retaining and implementing what is learned.  Famed physicist Albert Einstein summarized the importance of imagery best when he said, "If I can’t picture it, I can’t understand it."

Homeschool Support

If you are looking for homeschool support, Margie Thompson offers consultation, curriculum planning, and implementation services for any subject and for students of all ages. Whether you are interested in assistance with a particular subject, or need help with all of them, Margie can help.

Each program is individualized for your needs and your child’s unique learning style.

Writing

Good writing skills can be the ticket to better academic achievement and higher standardized testing scores. Young students often find it difficult to express their thoughts in written form. Your child may lack an understanding of basic English grammar or it may be as simple as helping your child to refine his or her writing skills.

For each child, Margie breaks down the process of writing into five easy steps. With her individualized approach, each student is taught to write in age-appropriate genres. The goal is to help students become more comfortable with the writing process while developing their own personal writing style.
