Testimonials - Customer feedback on the Phono-Graphix® Method
What parents have to say about Phono-Graphix
Both of my twins had phonographic help in primary school, they are now 26 years old! Phonographix was just amazing and 'unlocked' reading for them both. One is now a veterinary nurse and the other works in brain injury rehab. I absolutely know this wouldn't have been possible had I not discovered this 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 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!

[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!

What teachers say about using Phono-Graphix in their classrooms
I can't thank you enough! Your work has helped me to become a much better reading teacher! I'm forever grateful!
Laurie Ponos, Scotts Valley, California
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 have seen real progress with my students. Thank you so much.
Kristine Harris, 1st-3rd grade special ed. teacher, Bothell, Washington
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.

What certified practitioners say about using Phono-Graphix in thier clinical practices, home-schooling, tutoring and more
This program has served me well for the last fifteen years. I really enjoy working with students that have varying learning differences. I presently have two students diagnosed with functioning autism. This is very gratifying as they really appreciate the code. It gives them something to 'hang their hat on', so to speak. Please know that I am a sincere advocate of the Phono-Graphix program.
Patty Barna, Reading Remedy, Oceanside, San Diego, CA
What I love about Phono-Graphix is that every student can benefit from it in one way or another. From Kindergarteners who would learn the "sound pictures" of sounds instead of being burdened with trying to remember the letter name of each word and the sound, to the 6th grader who is beginning to struggle with decoding multi-syllabic words that he encounters in his reading. Instead of teaching phonics rules which all have exceptions, Phono-Graphix teaches a logical way of approaching a word. For the older student, learning the "special endings" and the "dominant" syllable can be extremely helpful. For the younger student, learning that "sound pictures" can have multiple sounds, trying one and if that doesn’t look or sound right, try another sound picture. Phono-Graphix is the best program that encompasses the blending, segmenting and manipulation of sounds while the child is learning. There are no mistakes in Phono-Graphix, only learning situations as even mistakes are used as teaching tools.

What our trainees say about our course
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!
Perri Nantais, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario
This course has been very eye-opening for me as a speech-language pathologist. I believe I will be able to easily put Phono-Graphix to use when teaching students how to read and spell, especially those who struggle with these skills. This program is very straight forward and easy to follow. Understanding the (four) concepts and the (three) skills needed to read/spell and how they both need to be implemented and utilized simultaneously makes this program innovative.
