Teaching struggling readers is hard.
Whether you’re a teacher or a parent, you’ve probably tried lots of
reading programmes but made little progress, which is soul-destroying when a child’s basic literacy is at stake. As a teacher, it’s disheartening when dyslexia and literacy issues in your school continue to grow year on year.
And if you’re a parent, you worry every day because your child’s confidence and happiness is suffering.
We believe that parents and teachers deserve a simple, effective, and engaging way to teach struggling readers.
A new approach.
Dcode combines the world-renowned Orton-Gillingham structured literacy approach with colour-coded phonics.
It is an engaging and interactive reading programme to turn struggling students into confident readers
With a step-by-step reading programme that's easy to teach, you'll experience:
- Engaged and activated children who don't get bored
- Increased student and teacher motivation with each lesson yielding a breakthrough
- The joy and fulfilment of seeing your dyslexic student read confidently
It's heartbreaking to watch a child struggle.
Dcode creator and founder Mary Moran has specialized in dyslexic tutoring for over 30 years.
“I understand how desperate you feel when you’re responsible for a child who is struggling to read and nothing you do is making a difference.”
That is why I created Dcode. Based on the Orton-Gillingham structured literacy approach, and informed by decades of success teaching dyslexic students, Dcode is a unique reading programme that has worked for me over and over again. Professionals I have worked with agree.
“An excellent resource for struggling children”
Dr. Saoirse Mac Cartaigh, Chartered Educational and Child Psychologist.
It will work for you too.
We Are Part Of Social Entrepreneurs Ireland
I feel honoured and proud to be awarded a place on the prestigious SEI Impact Programme, 2022-23. On this programme I will be mentored and supported over the coming year by the team at Social Entrepreneurs, Ireland, and, along with the other four awardees, be guided on my journey to building a socially impactful enterprise. The motivation I got over the years from teaching wonderful
children, struggling from an inability to learn to read due to dyslexia, or some other neuro-diversity, has shaped my professional goal in life, which is to ensure every child learns to read effectively and confidently.
Teachers, parents, and children love Dcode.
"A Joy To Teach"
Mary has created a reading programme that is a joy to teach. Her years of experience with dyslexic students are evident in this ingenious system. She deeply understands the challenges that both readers and teachers face and has created a programme that overcomes them.
"Dcode is Different"
I find reading really hard and my Mum sometimes got cross when I didn't pay attention during our lessons. When we got Dcode, I found it really easy to remember the vowels because of the colours. Now I read every night by myself for fun. Dcode is different to the lessons I did before and I love it.
"Highly Recommended"
I have been using Dcode for 4 months. It's a great programme. Very easy to follow and the children love the bright colours. Highly recommend it.
"It's simple, it's engaging, and it works."
As a parent of a dyslexic son, who had been going to a specialised tutor for over 3 years, twice a week, and who was so tired of his lessons, I can tell you that Dcode literally changed our lives. I quickly learned how to teach it, and now my son loves it. It's simple, it's engaging, and it works.
