There have been many articles in the media of late concerning the low literacy level of children in our schools today. Being literate is having the ability to read and write. In society today, if you lack this skill your chances of becoming successful are greatly decreased. Not only children can be illiterate or semi-literate, but adults also.

Applied Scholastics Centres provide Phonics Tutoring to children, adults and English as a Second Language students. Phonics is a method of teaching reading, and teaches that letters and combinations of letters represent specific sounds. We cater for both the beginner and remedial student who need help in this area.

Our Phonics method is unique as it’s taught in conjunction with Study Technology.

The end result is not just knowing how to sound out a word, but a clear understanding of the definitions of words, thereby resulting in an ability to comprehend what is being read.

We take pride in seeing our students gain the ability and confidence to read, write, spell and truly understand what they are reading.

Our Phonics Tutors have undergone a comprehensive training programme to ensure that results will be achieved with every student.
