What is dyslexia tutoring as a Certified Academic Language Therapist?

The Academic Language Therapy Association (ALTA) certifies academic language therapists. Certified Academic Language Therapists (CALT) have completed accredited courses of study that provide extensive training and practicum experiences in multisensory structured language teaching. Academic Language Therapists have knowledge of the logic and structure of English language systems: phonology, phonics, orthography, morphology-etymology, semantics, and syntax. They know how to deliver structured language instruction using simultaneous multisensory teaching strategies. CALT's use Academic Language Therapy incorporating a variety of tools such as Alphabetic Phonics, Scientific Spelling, and Multi-sensory Grammar among many others during their tutoring therapy sessions.
