Objective: The current article studies the effective intervention procedures in the context of the behavioral model, Precision Teaching (PT) for children and adolescent with learning or reading disabilities. Methods: Articles and materials were studies by searching some relevant terms such as precision teaching, evidence-based methods/intervention, best practices, and learning disability/disorder. In addition, some domestic studies were extensively reviewed. Rsults: Results indicated that effective interventions in the area of reading difficulties were found in the context of behavioral paradigm. One of the prevalent procedure was PT that has much commonalities with “response to intervention”. PT has some exclusive features such as continuous assessment of student performance, recording and presentation of student performance on a chart, and making educational, and academic decisions based on the performance of students which makes this method more effective for students with reading disabilities. Conclusion: Accordingly, we conclude that PT is an effective method in teaching students with learning disabilities. This technique has attracted investigators and professionals attention due to its special advantages in instruction. Theoretical foundation, principle conceptualization and definition of this technique are elaborated.
