AFL Canada is please to offer French and English tutoring for all ages. At AFL we use the SMT method. The Simultaneous Multisensory Teaching method (S.M.T.), based on the Orton Gillingham system, is a language re-education method developed to meet the needs of students of all ages, who need a more thorough knowledge of the structure of written language, and a solid understanding of the association of sounds and symbols, before learning how to apply the concepts and rules of written language.
The objective of the S.M.T. method is to teach reading, writing and spelling, with an emphasis on reading accuracy in the early stages, followed by thorough comprehension of written language and its structures. The material is presented in short sequential steps to help students develop self-confidence. Students progress at their own pace.
Advantages of the SMT method
- It can be taught to students of all ages and all grade levels.
- Although developed specifically for dyslexic students, this method can be used for all grade 1 children to prevent reading failure and to reduce the need for remedial help later.
- SMT can be adapted to a group of students.
