"Hi, I’m Nicole Case, a passionate literacy advocate on a mission to put secondary literacy interventionists out of a job. My focus is upskilling parents, early childhood educators and teachers on best practices when it comes to laying the foundation and paving the way to lifelong literacy success.
A systematic synthetic phonics approach is widely recognised as the best approach for teaching reading because it builds a strong, foundational understanding of how letters and sounds form the building blocks of words. This method benefits a wide range of learners, including those who might struggle with memorisation or come from diverse linguistic backgrounds, by providing clear, logical rules they can follow.
Upon completing this short course on systematic synthetic phonics, you will have delved into the evidence supporting systematic synthetic phonics as a cornerstone of effective reading instruction. Armed with both theoretical insights and practical strategies for implementing this approach, you will be well-prepared to introduce phonics in a structured, engaging manner. I hope you enjoy this course!"
