Comprehensive Intervention for Students with Dyslexia

Two-year curriculum written by the staff of the Luke Waites Center for Dyslexia and Learning Disorders at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children (TSRHC).

Builds on the success of the three previous dyslexia therapy programs developed by the staff of TSRHC: Alphabetic Phonics, the Dyslexia Training Program, and TSRH Literacy Program.

Designed for use by Certified Academic Language Therapists for children with dyslexia ages seven and older.

Developed to enable students with dyslexia to achieve and maintain better word recognition, reading fluency, and reading comprehension, and aid in the transition from a therapy setting to “real world” learning.
Certified Academic Language Therapists provide structured, diagnostic dyslexia intervention designed to build accurate, fluent, and independent reading and writing skills.
Certified Academic Language Therapists (CALTs) review comprehensive evaluations and academic samples, then administer baseline assessments. Data-driven results guide diagnostic, prescriptive instruction that builds accuracy, fluency, and independence in written language.


CALTs provide explicit instruction in the structure of the English language—phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and orthography—to support measurable growth in reading accuracy, fluency, comprehension, spelling, and written expression.
CALTs provide high-quality one-to-one or small-group intervention through a secure virtual platform, making expert dyslexia therapy accessible to families regardless of location. This model allows for consistency, flexibility, and sustained progress over time.


CALTs integrate visual, auditory, and motor pathways with explicit instruction in the structure of English, creating a strong foundation for reading, spelling, and written language development.
