Phonics has been proven to be the most reliable way to teach younger children to read. This class will help your learner progress from connecting letter sounds to forming words to learning that certain combinations of letters predictably represent specific sounds. Children are able to rapidly progress when they practice reading daily and this class is intended for just that purpose.

👉This class is the perfect fit for anyone just beginning to read and proceeds at a level consistent with first grade reading through the summer or school year, getting progressively more difficult as the class continues.
