See how schools and teachers use Phonics Hero to deliver structured, effective phonics practice — in whole-class lessons and small groups.
Teaching Assistant Loraine Ledwell from St Clare’s School, England, used Phonics Hero’s Child Accounts to support her group of struggling readers. Their reading progress triple in just six months! Children who once lacked confidence are now reading independently, self-correcting, and eager to learn.
Year One teacher Kathy Ferguson transformed her class from struggling to confident readers after introducing Phonics Hero. In just one year, every child exceeded reading and spelling expectations, with average progress of 15 reading levels.
At ER Taylor Elementary School in San Francisco, students who used Phonics Hero twice a week showed significant gains in their Fountas and Pinnell reading levels compared to those who used it once a week. Teachers saw stronger engagement, greater reading confidence, and notable improvement in phonics and high-frequency word knowledge.
