Testimonials - Customer feedback on the Phono-Graphix® Method

My son and I attended for the one week intensive program. It was well worth it! My son is 7 and was a very discouraged little boy when it came to reading and eventually all of school. He has struggled with reading and recently was diagnosed LD. We just followed [the instructor's] lead and he was making progress after the first day... the results are amazing! He is smiling and laughing while reading stories to me and not crying anymore!!

[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.

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 love the Phono-Graphix method. I see the success of the program in the classroom and with my own children.

A simple, fun, fast-working, proven method to teach reading, Phono-Graphix, is laid out in the book Reading Reflex, The Foolproof Phono-Graphix Method for Teaching Your Child to Read, available on the Phono-Graphix website and on Amazon. It's all that is needed to get started helping a new reader or struggling reader, young or old. This book and the Phono-Graphix website give the basic information about the method such as the four concepts that make up the nature of the English code and the three skills needed to access it. The website also offers outstanding support materials for parents and teachers as well as a Phono-Graphix Certification Course. The method works well in school and at home because of its flexibility. https://www.phono-graphix.com/about_the_method.php I have used the method for about eighteen years to teach struggling middle school readers, adult ESL learners, and most recently, as a retired teacher, to tutor a Kindergarten reader just learning the sound/symbol correspondence. The experience of seeing non-readers become readers has been a joy for me and a life-changer for my students and tutees. I originally found out about Phono-Graphix while browsing at the University of Hawaii bookstore and saw Phono-Graphix mentioned as one of the most effective reading methods in a book I came across: Why Our Children Can't Read and What We Can Do About It: A Scientific Revolution in Reading. In his book available on Amazon, Essentials of Assessing, Preventing, and Overcoming Reading Difficulties, David A. Kilpatrick lists PhonoGraphix as one of the few proven programs. Also, in his November 17, 2017 lecture, "Recent Advances in Understanding Reading Difficulties: Implications for Assessment, Prevention, and Highly Successful intervention," David Kilpatrick lists PhonoGraphix as an example of a program "used in studies with highly successful outcomes." https://www.strose.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Chapter-J-NYASP-Albany-November-17-2017.pdf "

When I began to pull a small group of 3rd grades students at an international school in Europe, where most of the students spoke english as a second and third language, they were all struggling with not only code knowledge, but also segmenting. They did not enjoy reading, and were very poor spellers. After eight months of only one hour a week of Phono-Graphix, all six students have been mainstreamed back into their third grade language classes. Their spelling has improved tremendously, and all six of them have shared how much they now love to read now. The classroom teacher is amazed at their progress, and the International School is now going to adopt Phono-Graphix as its reading curriculum.

This program is easy to implement and the progress I have seen with my students especially with the ones who have learning difficuties is amazing...I have used this system with my students and the results of their reading and spelling improvement is fantastic. This system should be taught in all schools across the country.

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.

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.

I really appreciated the videos where Ms. Erin Duncan explained and modeled the techniques and strategies. It helped me feel confident to go and try those tasks with my students. I appreciated the files to print for future reference. This course really helped the manual come alive and gave me the confidence to move forward with implementation.

I enjoyed the course very much, got a great deal more out of it than I thought. The speedy replies from the course co-ordinators were much appreciated. First time I have done an online course and it worked well for me. Congratulations for working out such a good program
