What parents have to say about Phono-Graphix
[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!

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.

I am very happy that I was able to take this certification curriculum. I learned so much about myself and the written language. I would recommend that when possible, you use actual students to complete your online assignments. I found that I learned much more when I worked with students rather than adults. Kids have a way of coming up with questions and ideas that adults don't even think about. They are very creative and full of insight. I learned more about errors and error correction when working with students than when teaching a lesson to an adult. I was fortunate to be able to study and learn this curriculum as my youngest child was just diagnosed with dyslexia. This curriculum has helped me understand how my chid is processing words and how I can help them. It was nice to have a child at home who could help me with my homework. It was a great way to get them to practice decoding without feeling like they were doing homework. I can see the progress their reading already. I can't wait to be able to apply what I have learned to future reading groups.

What teachers say about using Phono-Graphix in their classrooms
I am the academic coordinator of Brindavan Education Trust, a learning a in Bangalore, India. We are a registered not-for-profit organization. We mainly cater to the education needs of children who are not able to cope with the rigors and pace of mainstream schools. The book Reading Reflex is a treasure trove for us. We use the methods and strategies explained in it with many of our students who struggle with picking up the basic skill of reading.

Great evidence-based intervention for students with reading disabilities!
Susan Etcheverry, North Battleford, Saskatchewan
It has sound basic principles, makes sense, and is much less frustrating for a child struggling to learn to read.

What certified practitioners say about using Phono-Graphix in thier clinical practices, home-schooling, tutoring and more
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 have thoroughly enjoyed the course and developed a lot of confidence in my abilities to identify reading and and spelling problems. I can better understand why dyslexic children have such difficulty but know that I can help effectively with my new Phono-Graphix tools. The course has been useful but help and encouragement form other teachers and experts who use the scheme makes it come alive and make sense.I am looking forward to developing my expertise and effectiveness. Many thanks!

What our trainees say about our course
The online Phono-Graphix course was excellent. It was very interactive with many hands on activities, as well as excellent articles. I enjoyed watching the developers work with some clients and provide good modeling and feedback to the clients. It also served to reinforce some similar techniques that I use with the small groups and clients that I see. It is definitely worth the time and effort!
Catherine Patterson, Potomac, MD
An informative and thorough course! The course content and videos provided everything I needed to thoroughly understand the Phono-Graphix method, and more importantly, understand the value of this Speech-to-Print method in teaching students to become competent readers.
