As a nonspeaker, you’re tired of being misunderstood and underestimated by everyone! Stuck being forever dependent on others and living a life you didn’t determine for yourself.

Spellers Method™
The Spellers Method supports nonspeaking, minimally speaking or unreliably speaking individuals learn how to spell and type as their most effective method of communication. It incorporates research based disciplines and individualized support for every speller on their unique path to fluency and autonomy.

Spellers on Screen
Building on the groundbreaking revelations of 'Spellers: The Movie,' our documentary series 'Underestimated' further explores the inspiring journey of triumphant nonspeaking individuals. Starting with the challenge to perceptions in the original movie, 'Underestimated' continues to redefine expectations and celebrate the resilience, courage and triumphs of nonspeaking Spellers.

We Are Spellers
We empower the nonspeaker whose voice is not yet heard to communicate autonomously, live independently, and thrive in a life of their choosing. Unlike traditional supports, our approach, method, and pursuit of speller autonomy and freedom starts with a belief in every nonspeaker and transcends to the communication partners and professionals who support them.
