English reading, spelling and writing lessons for ESL learners
Specialist 1-on-1 lessons for children and adults learning English. Hear, say, read and spell each English sound with a certified reading specialist, online across Canada and the US or in person in Prince George.
Why it works
English spelling finally makes sense
Speech to print is a natural fit for English language learners. Lessons start with the sounds in whole English words. Students learn to hear and say each sound clearly, connect it to the letter or letters that represent it, then read and write the word sound by sound.
Patterns replace rules, so English spelling starts to make sense instead of feeling random. Because pronunciation, spelling and reading are taught together, each one supports the others.
