Sue Scibetta Hegland
Sue Scibetta Hegland is an educator and frequent speaker on topics related to spelling. She began her career doing research and instructional design, but her focus shifted in 2003, when she learned that one of her children is dyslexic. She began volunteering as a reading tutor before being trained in the Orton Gillingham (OG) approach to literacy instruction. She has been studying and teaching about orthographic linguistics since 2014.
Sue has served on the Board of Directors for the Upper Midwest Branch of the International Dyslexia Association, on the Board of Education for the Brandon Valley School District, and as Editor-in-Chief for the International Dyslexia Association’s Fact Sheet publications. She is also the founder of the website LearningAboutSpelling.com.
During her work as an OG tutor, Sue has drawn on research and her own practical experience to develop a deep understanding of what works in helping dyslexic people to improve their spelling.
