    Abstract:
    The first results of a parent-child program for improving the children's spelling are reported. Seventeen spelling-disabled children and their mothers took part for about one year in a supervised tutoring program that was based on German spelling rules. The parents met with two therapists one evening a month and received guidance with the program. Overall there was no improvement in spelling. However, a qualitative analysis of spelling errors revealed marked improvement in those areas that had been worked on in the program. Significant predictors of spelling improvement were the spelling ability of the mother and whether the mother was working or not.
