Certified Academic Language Therapists 

ALTA Certified Academic Language Therapists provide diagnostic, explicit, systematic Multisensory Structured Language intervention which builds a high degree of accuracy, knowledge, and independence for students with written-language disorders, including dyslexia.   In Texas, many CALTs are also licensed through TDLR, and may use the Texas credential Licensed Dyslexia Therapist (LDT).   Those who complete the therapy level training requirements, but have not completed a Master level graduate degree may use the credential ALT-A Academic Language Therapy-Associate.  

Dyslexia Specialists

Dyslexia Specialists in HEB ISD have completed specialized training in structured literacy programs, and work under the supervision of the department Facilitator.  Many of our specialists have completed graduate level coursework in a language therapy program at the Therapist level, and use the credential Dyslexia Therapist.  All of our Dyslexia Specialists are trained in the latest research in the field of dyslexia and dysgraphia, as well as in the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading and spelling.
