Our approach
At Miss McFadden Educational Therapy, sessions use Multisensory Structured Language Therapy, the only research-backed method proven to support children with dyslexia and language-based learning difficulties. This approach actively engages multiple senses—seeing, hearing and moving—to strengthen how the brain processes and remembers written language. Sessions are carefully structured and build step by step across key areas including phonemic awareness, phonics, morphology, syntax and semantics. Each child attends weekly 45-minute one-on-one therapy sessions in a calm, sensory-supportive room that can be adjusted for temperature, sound, light and movement to suit their individual needs. The practice meets every child exactly where they are in their literacy journey and works at a pace that is right for them, balancing moving as fast as they can with slowing down as much as needed.
