The Spelling for Hope approach

Holistic, structured literacy — at your kitchen table

Structured literacy

Orton-Gillingham principles and UFLI Foundations, taught explicitly and multisensorily.

Regulation first

Visual schedules, movement breaks and session lengths that fit your child.

Interest-led

Into GO trains, planes over Pearson or the Humber River? Those make great decodable stories too.

Our promise to you

The First-Session Fit Guarantee

Rapport comes before reading. If your child and their tutor don’t connect in the very first session, that session is free — or we’ll match you with a different tutor right away. Your choice, no awkward conversations.

Etobicoke FAQ

Do you cover all of Etobicoke?

We serve most Etobicoke neighbourhoods. Add your nearest intersection to the intake and we’ll confirm availability.

Do you work with my child’s school?

Yes. With your permission, we can share progress notes with your child’s TDSB, TCDSB or private school teacher and IEP team.

Can I use funding?

Some families use Jordan’s Principle, the Medical Expense Tax Credit or other options. Standalone tutoring isn’t an OAP core clinical service, so we’ll explain your options honestly.
