Testimonials - Customer feedback on the Phono-Graphix® Method

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 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!

[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!

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!

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 enjoy Phono-Graphix as much as my students. The children have really responded positively to the program with such comments as, "Can I keep working?", "I can write so many words now", "This is fun!". It's nice to see that both teachers and children had an equal amount of fun!

This is an easy step by step solid reading program that makes sense! Every reading teacher should take this course.

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.

As a speech therapist, i have worked with other reading programs for years, but Phono-Graphix has finally answered many of my questions regarding the encoding and decoding of words. I have easily implemented what i have learned through Phono-Graphix. From the Pink Level helping a child learn to read using the sounds of words instead of struggling with letter recognition to the Yellow Level helping an older child to recognize the Mr. Schwa, Phono-Graphix is fabulous!

I loved this course! It was a great way to learn about the program over the summer, from the comfort of my own home. The instructors offered comprehensive feedback to my assignments in a timely manner, which helped to guide my understanding of the program.

The Phono-Graphix course provided an in-depth overview of the program and thoroughly prepared me to teach. The course also enlightened me to new aspects of reading instruction and theory that I wasn't aware of before.
