WHO WE HELP
Specialized tutoring for every learning profile
Every student learns differently. Hammond Bell works with children and adults across a range of learning profiles using structured, research-based methods tailored to each student's needs.
Dyslexia
Reading, decoding, and spelling challenges. We use Orton-Gillingham and Barton — the gold standards for dyslexia intervention.
Dyscalculia
Struggles with number sense, math facts, and concepts. Multi-sensory instruction that moves from hands-on to abstract at each student's pace.
Dysgraphia
Difficulty with writing, organization, and written expression. Structured instruction to build sentence-level and paragraph skills.
ADHD/ADD
Short, structured sessions with frequent check-ins. Our one-on-one online format removes distractions and keeps students on track.
Our Structured Literacy Approach
We use structured, research-based methods proven to work for students with dyslexia and learning differences.
Foundational Approach
Orton-Gillingham Approach
The evidence-based framework behind everything we do. We use explicit phonics instruction, multi-sensory learning, and lessons that build systematically from foundational skills to complex language. Learn more.
Pre-Reading
​Foundations in Sounds
A pre-reading program that builds the auditory discrimination, memory, and sequencing skills students need before beginning a structured literacy program like Barton.
Structured Literacy
Barton Reading & Spelling System
A structured literacy program that teaches reading and spelling in a logical, cumulative sequence through direct, multi-sensory instruction across 10 levels. Learn more.
Dyscalculia Support
​Multi-sensory Math
Concept-based instruction for students with dyscalculia that moves from hands-on, concrete learning to abstract problem-solving that builds number sense and confidence at each step.
