When I first started teaching, I found that there were a LOT of things I didn’t learn in college! Can you relate to that?
One of those things was the early literacy process – specifically, how to teach explicit, systematic phonics so kids can become successful spellers, readers, and writers.
After I realized how much I needed to learn about teaching phonics, I decided to read and take training courses. I knew I could do a better job teaching my students, but I needed help.
Fast forward to now…I do feel more confident that I understand how the English language works (and how to share that knowledge in a kid-friendly way).
And I’ve seen how my own knowledge has helped my students grow much stronger in their literacy skills.
So all that learning was well worth it…but it took time, and some of it was not cheap!!
If you feel like I once felt – that you want to learn more about teaching phonics effectively – then I have something special to share with you!
I’m offering a FREE phonics audio mini-course!
This is a great opportunity for you to learn more about effective phonics instruction. It won’t take a lot of time out of your day, and you’ll be better prepared to help your kids become proficient readers and writers!
