About Us
Jan Campbell, New York City Orton Gillingham reading specialist, earned her B.A. in American Studies from Yale University, and her M.A. in American Studies from Brown University. For 12 years, she has been a secondary English and community college English and reading teacher. In 1997, she was nominated for Teacher of the Year in her school district.
Jan has thousands of practicum and professional hours in the research-validated Orton Gillingham methodology. In 2007, she was accepted into the Academy as an Associate member. Jan is now completing her requirements to become a Certified member. An Orton Gillingham practioner follows a clinical model of diagnosis and prescriptive treatment for cases, which can range from the moderate to the severe. Hours of practicum experience under a supervising Orton Gillingham Fellow coupled with graduate study in reading and the English language combine to make qualifying as an Manhattan Orton Gillingham practioner a lengthy and demanding process.
Jan is also is the Treasurer and a board member of a branch of the International Dyslexia Association (www.connbida.org). She also attends the annual professional conferences of the International Dyslexia Asssociation, the New York Branch of the International Dyslexia Association, and the Academy of Orton Gillingham Practitioners & Educators.
