Testimonials - Customer feedback on the Phono-Graphix® Method

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.

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 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.

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!!

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.

I think the information in this course is going to be extremely useful as I prepare to put the program into full effect next year with my students. I have been able to coach my teachers through a soft implementation of the program this year as they too are currently enrolled in the program. I also look forward to utilizing the teaching technique with my own son. The most beneficial aspect of this program is the hands on approach to learning the code. Students are actively engaged in learning and this was extremely helpful with my most struggling readers this year.

This program is definitely worth your investment of time and money. I'm just finishing the training, and have been working with a student as I go. It faster than any method I have ever used, and gets outstanding results.

This was a very exciting and rewarding year for my Kindergarten students. This was truly an amazing year for me and the students! Could it be after 40 years of teaching I have found program that teaches children to read that is fun to teach as well as to learn. We love it! Thank you, Phono-Graphix for a program that makes a difference in the lives of so many.

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!!!

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.

The course was very informative and easy to follow. Thank you!

I am very pleased with the amount of clarification I have received from taking this course. As a trained reading recovery teacher and EMPOWER Reading and Spelling trained teacher, I have learned so much and believe that this way of teaching would be very effective for any child. The phono-graphix method is excellent for struggling readers because of the way the lessons unfold and the amount of engagement that is promoted in every session. Students must be involved in the sessions which will only enhance their learning and help them to take ownership of their reading and spelling. I also like all the available resources on the website. The students I have worked with have made a lot of progress. I look forward to continuing to become better and better at my instruction so that I can help many children gain confidence in their ability to become independent readers and enjoy reading!
