The Mission of the Augustine Project
Our mission is to improve the reading, writing and spelling abilities of low-income children and teens who struggle with literacy skills.
The Augustine Project/Winston-Salem trains and supports volunteer tutors who provide free, long term, 1-to-1 instruction using the Orton-Gillingham approach and Wilson Reading System® materials. Our tutors work with students in the Winston-Salem area.
Augustine lessons use Wilson® materials and include the five essential components of research-based reading instruction as defined by the National Reading Panel:
-phonemic awareness
-phonics
-vocabulary
-fluency
-comprehension
Who We Serve
We serve low-income children and teens who are reading, writing and spelling below grade level in the Winston-Salem area
