From Sounds to Words

Inside a Phonics Lesson

Teachers show a skill, practise it with the children, then support them as they try it themselves.

Hear It → Blend It → Read It

patpat

With a word such as pat, the teacher models the sounds /p/ /a/ /t/, then shows how to blend them. Children practise together before trying another word with support.

The words and activities depend on the reading skills each child is working on.

Common Questions

Questions Before the First Lesson

Practical information about assessments and classes.

What age can my child start?+

In-person classes welcome children aged 3–8. Little Explorers is for ages 3–4, Early Readers for ages 5–6, and Confident Readers for ages 7–8. Online 1-to-1 lessons welcome ages 4–8.

My child is shy or may cry. Can I stay?+

We encourage you to give the teacher space to help your child settle, including at the first lesson. If your child needs your comfort, we will ask you to help before stepping away again as they become used to the environment. Please tell us about any settling-in concerns beforehand.

Is there a break during the lesson?+

The teacher provides breaks as needed during the 90-minute lesson.

What if my child gets upset or cannot finish an activity?+

The teacher will guide your child and respond to what they need at the time. Tell us beforehand about anything that may help us support them.

How long before I see results?+

Progress varies with your child’s starting point, attendance and practice. Look for specific changes such as joining familiar sounds, needing fewer prompts or feeling more willing to read. We do not promise a fixed number of sessions to reach a reading milestone.

What's the class size?+

Physical groups average 5–7 children, with a maximum of 10. Online lessons are always 1-to-1.

Do you offer a trial before committing?+

Yes. See the four-session paid trial details above, or ask us for trial fees and class times.
