Russian lessons for all.

I have several years of experience teaching phonics to children. I am using a very famous program "Hooked on Phonics". Working with young children made me a very patient teacher. I also work at a daycare and it is natural for me to be around very young leaners.

Laura H.

47 Phonics lessons

Our son was challenged sounding out words, and at his advanced age, finding a phonics program that wasn't just for younger kids was impossible. Malea was able to develop a program as time progressed based on his specific problem areas she identified each lesson. She used a wide range of resources she knew about and searched diligently for new resources to help him. Not only did his phonics improve, his reading out loud skills improved and he grew more and more confident each week.
