alphabetic phonics/orton-gillingham

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

I have a question that perhaps does not have a short, simple answer: What is the difference of an academic language tutor that uses the Alphabetic Phonics program for remediation and an academic language tutor that is certified by the Orton-Gillingham Academy and uses the Orton-Gillingham program for remediation? I understand they are both based on the same theory and foundation; but what’s the difference in each of the programs, pro’s and con’s of each program and would one be more suitable for an individual child depending on his/her needs and challenges? Thank you for an answer or resource recommendation. Susan Hutton
