Testimonials - Customer feedback on the Phono-Graphix® Method

...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.

Our 8 year old nephew was having difficulties with reading. After reading such positive feedback regarding Phono-Graphix, our family decided to travel from Virginia to attend the one week Intensive course. He is making great progress with his reading. [Our Instructor] has made a difference not only with providing him with valuable tools to assist in his reading but teaching us (Aunt, Mom and Grandmom) how to continue further training.

[Our instructor] has been working with our 11 year old son. His grades have greatly improved on reading and comprehension. Lately, she has been working with him more on writing, and his last report card showed great improvement!

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!

Phonographix has been a wonderful program for my students. Introducing multiple representations of sounds was most helpful. It helped my kindergarteners learn sound pictures more quickly and be more fluid in their sound switching while thinking about what makes sense. I would highly recommend the program.

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 "

As a veteran Special Education teacher, I was really stunned by the research results of Phono-Graphix supporting its effectiveness. I wish I had known about this methodology much sooner.

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.

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 love Phono-Graphix and so do my students! They get to experience success from the very first lesson.

The course is clearly explained with opportunities to practice the lessons as you go. It's great to be able to complete it at your own pace and to have questions answered as you work through it.

The creators of Phono-Graphix truly understand how to teach reading and spelling, how children learn, and how to train teachers. I have taken this training to help me teach my children who are 18, 15, and 7 years old. I started teaching the Phono-Graphix method to my youngest when she was 4 years old. She has had to wait for me to learn how to teach better, but she has been reading since she was 4 because of the Phono-Graphix method of teaching to read. My 15 year old is actually a good reader, but struggled in certain areas that only the training was able to teach me how to help him. As a parent certifying as an instructor was worth it. I had read the Reading Reflex book, but the training is what helped me be confident in teaching Phono-Graphix to all my children.
