What parents have to say about Phono-Graphix


My 13 year old daughter suffered a traumatic brain injury in a car accident when she was 2. As a result, she has had difficulty reading. We have tried more than 10 phonics programs and a host of reading tutors. I was told by educational specialists to stop trying to improve my daughter's skills, and instead, set up accommodations, i.e. books on tape/voice recorder for the blind. My daughter and I traveled across the country to work with [a Phono-Graphix therapist] in a one-week intensive. I was amazed at the improvement in my daughter's skills and confidence after only one week. My daughter's confidence is boosted and her skills significantly enhanced. I would not have believed it if I had not witnessed it myself. The program is not a one-week fix, but it certainly has given us a running start. We will continue practicing the methods, and [our Phono-Graphix therapist] is available to answer questions. I believe she is genuinely interested in my daughter's progress. I cannot recommend the PhonoGraphix method highly enough.

As a parent, I wanted to thank you for creating such an affordable and fantastic book to teach reading. I purchased the book based on a recommendation during a training. My son, was in first grade, and he had not progressed in reading. It was becoming frustration and overwhelming. Once I started the program with him, last summer, he has made significant progress with his reading, despite his several disabilities. Among his diagnosis is oral-motor dyspraxia, ADHA, and dyslexia. He had made so much progress in the one summer, that I forced the school to continue using the program with him during the school year. The school had started him with Orton-gillingham, however, it was so language intensive, he was getting overwhelmed and confused. This program is so simple and direct that it can help any child. So, as a parent, thank you! As an educator, I hope to eventually convince my school district to pay for me to get the certification in the program.

[Our instructor] was able to bring our daughter up two grade levels and be a more confident student. If your child has trouble with reading, we would definitely recommend Phono-Graphix! [Our instructor] also helps parents in being able to assist their children with reading.

I have started implementing PG with many students, all different ages, and have found it incredibly impactful already. I love how it sets the child up for success from the beginning - something they've kids have rarely experienced before.

What teachers say about using Phono-Graphix in their classrooms


I have been teaching reading since 1979 when I received my M.Ed. from Lesley University. Over the years, I have been trained in Orton-Gillingham, Wilson and Project Read. This is without a doubt the best reading program I have ever used. It moves quickly, enabling the students to build a base of letter/sound knowledge much faster than the other programs and does not require the memorization of terms or phonics rules. I highly recommend it!

I really enjoyed taking this course. I think it is an excellent program! It combines phoneme manipulation with phonics instruction- without the tedious rules and exceptions. It is the best way, the real way to teach reading.

Eileen Kroboth, third grade teacher, Downingtown, PA

This program is a great tool to use to get students reading. The lessons are all designed to bring up errors so you can teach from the learner's mistakes. It makes students feel confident and engaged. There were so many moments when my "frustrated students" felt successful and excited to come work in small groups with me.

My friend's daughter is finishing up 1st grade right now. The school's teachers, specialists, and her mother have been working with her since the beginning of 1st grade. In March, her mom talked to me about how they'd hit a brick wall. The mother was desperate. There had been little to no progress since the beginning of the year. I asked her mother if I could take a shot at it. I was just starting my PG course, and I offered the lessons for free. Her daughter was evaluated by the school in March and labeled LD. Immediately after, I starting working with her. After seven sessions, the school's reading specialist sent the mother an email in April expressing her surprise at the child's progress. She was already nearly reading at grade level. Her mother is now a paying customer of mine through the end of summer. :) And the little girl is soooo proud of herself. It was a truly sweet moment to listen to the child tell me about her school tutor's comments.

What certified practitioners say about using Phono-Graphix in thier clinical practices, home-schooling, tutoring and more


I've been using PG for over 15 years and I am thrilled with the way it has helped hundreds of children over the years in my classrooms alone. Fantastic program!!!

Andrea Payne, Stockholm, Sweden

I took the certification course a year ago and have used Phono-Graphix with my emergent readers to high schoolers everyday since. I love it and it’s been truly life-changing for so many of our clients. I've taught so many children to read (and love reading) with Phono-Graphix. It's even worked with children with global delays, who people just assumed would never read. It just takes longer.

What our trainees say about our course


This program is awesome! I was able to learn a lot about how to use it, but also about phonics as a whole. I cannot wait to use it in my classroom this year!

Erica Vassos, Bethesda, MD

The course really simplifies reading the English language. All the principles taught are clear and concise and make perfect sense. English is a difficult language to read because of all the "exceptions to the rules" but this course clarifies and puts meaning into the way words are spelled and pronounced. The lessons are simple yet effective and the student quickly progresses which increases his\her confidence in their reading ability. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their English language skills.
