Testimonials - Customer feedback on the Phono-Graphix® Method

I used Reading Reflex with my son for months, but the program has given me so much more than I expected. This method makes sense and our children NEED a reading program that isn't confusing. Since I homeschool my three boys it took me longer than I thought to get through the assignments, but that is the beauty of your course... being able to work at your own pace. My son is reading at grade level and I have a new career opportunity that will work with my schedule. Thanks for offering this program!

This course has been unspeakably useful. As a reading instructor and a member of a family with an autistic boy and an ADD/dyslexic boy, the concept that letters are pictures of sounds has been like an awakening!

...my highest recommendation! I've referred many other parents of children with learning disabilities and parents of children who want to give their children a solid foundation to reading and I've only heard very warm and thankful feedback.

I have learned so many things from this program. I have 21 years of teaching experience, a K-12 Reading Endorsement through my Master's Degree and am Reading Recovery trained; however, I have learned so much about helping the at-risk reader (and all readers for that matter) understand how our language works in a matter-of-fact, hand-on way. My daughter had struggled in first grade and her school used this program with her. Within weeks she was caught up with everyone else, since she had changed schools and the expectations were much higher. The kids enjoy the activities, mastery becomes apparent and it is wonderful to see them use what they have learned in their reading. I found the examples in the training very helpful and am almost sorry it is over. What is not over is using Phono-Graphix as an intervention to the readers in our school who need to accelerate to reach the levels of their peers...I can see myself using this for many years to come! Thanks for thinking outside the box and providing materials for those kids who need a different way of learning!

Phono-Graphix has helped our struggling readers tremendously this school year. We have had more growth with the pre and post diagnostic tests and STAR Early Literacy and Reading assessments than in past years when we used other phonics programs. I now fully understand that Phono-Graphix is not a program, it is a reading method. I would recommend it to any Reading Specialist, ELL teacher, or Special Education teacher. It is a very useful and effective tool to help students who struggle with reading.

Phono-Graphix is an amazing program that helps to norm teachers in how to teach the phonetic code which has been proven to transform learning for students as young as four through adulthood. It has a 98% success rate at each level. Phono-Graphix teaches students that it is not about letter names and memorizing such, but that reading is about the sounds that are within a word. Students will learn to read by manipulating sounds and becoming masters at phoneme manipulation, segmenting, and blending. This program is engaging and highly motivating to students and provides teachers with fully scripted lesson plans for easy execution. There is also a home connection component as parents are provided with resources as well. We have seen incredible success since beginning Phono-Graphix.

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.

I love how explicit the instruction is. It makes it very clear to students what the sounds are and how to read and write them. This is very valuable to teachers who use word study types of programs.

I've been using this program for children with learning disabilities for the past 10 years and it has yielded 100% success rate with all of my students. I've received many appreciative feedback from my students' parents. I am glad I was introduced to this program by my former employer/mentor. I want to take this opportunity to thank the author/creator and all involved in the Phono-Graphix Reading Company.

This course is fantastic for anyone teaching reading. It brings the task back to basics, it cuts out all the complexities of spelling rules, long and short vowels, etc. etc., and gets straight to the task. Really worthwhile! Not only do I as a tutor find this beneficial, my most difficult reluctant readers are really progressing due to Phono-Graphix.

This course has been extremely informative and practical in helping me understand the nature of the code and how to teach it effectively to students. I am so glad that I found this course so that I could teach my own children to read and now be able to help other children to read in clinical practice or in a public school setting. I highly recommend this course!

I thoroughly enjoyed the program, easy to understand and well set out. Thank you!
