What is meant by Multisensory teaching?

Multisensory teaching is a critical aspect of instruction for dyslexic students used by clinically trained teachers. Effective instruction for students with dyslexia is what all students require that is an instruction that is direct & explicit, structured & systematic, cumulative, cognitive, intensive, emotionally sound and focused on meaningfully taking speech to print. The multisensory component involves using visual, auditory, and kinaesthetic-tactile pathways simultaneously to enhance memory and learning of written language. A skilled MSL educator provides direct instruction to ensure links are consistently made between the visual (language we see), auditory (language we hear/perceive), and kinaesthetic-tactile (language symbols we feel) pathways in learning to read and spell.
