LINGUISTIC MULTISENSORY PROTOCOL

Individualised, Interactive, Systematic, Flexible


Butterfly-Effect Teaching supports an individualised, multi-sensory, structured, systematic and sequential linguistic remediation approach for dyslexia and other learning difficulties.

It aims to correct common dyslexia-related behavioural symptoms, like for example:

  • Phonemic reversals

  • Insertions

  • Omissions

  • Incorrect phonemic & consonant decoding

  • Difficulties in blending

  • Poor visual scanning

  • Poor visual-spatial awareness

  • Poor pencil control

  • Compromised body posture

There are 6 successive Levels that shape the instruction, commencing from simple Letter & Sound Naming, blending, CVC pseudo-/word combinations that the individual undergoes. First, lower linguistic foundations of the English language (Levels A & B) are being covered. Once this goal has been achieved, a smooth transition to CCVC or CVCC pseudo-/words, triple blends (Levels C & D) follows, leading to multi-syllabics, etc. (Levels E & F).

As remediation unfolds in a direct and linguistically-rational manner, the individual is able to strengthen her/his foundations and progressively work on accuracy, fluency and mastery. As such, one is being exposed to, and is able to attain higher cognitive skills (from Level D onwards).

How is a Linguistic online session structured?

Instruction is being delivered via an online platform at a date and time of your preference. It lasts an hour per session and consists of the following:

  • Mindfulness (A few moments of silence to centre the mind and set the intention for the session)

  • Body posture check

  • Reading

  • Spelling

  • Dictation

  • Handwriting

  • Comprehension – once Level D is reached

  • Punctuation & Grammar - once Level E is reached

  • Writing – once Level E is reached

    *Remediation material provided by Butterfly-Effect Teaching

What is the number of Linguistic Remediation sessions per week?

The number of sessions varies from one to three per week and is determined by the individual’s baseline performance on the assessment battery administered and the severity of dyslexia symptoms.

Ten to fifteen minutes of daily homework accompany the individual’s learning journey, establish a healthy and positive learning routine and shape a successful, responsible and independent learner.

In childhood instruction, five degrees of Butterfly Initiations inspire, accompany and reward each child’s learning journey into Remediation, preparing them for the moment when they will flap their golden wings and fly away.
