The PhonicsTutor family of products forms a complete phonics, reading and spelling curriculum for beginning and remedial readers of all ages.  From phonemic awareness and letter recognition for the very young to a comprehensive presentation of spelling rules, PhonicsTutor has the product to fit your needs. For 8 years, homeschoolers have awarded 1st Place to this educational software.

Teachers and parents across the country asked for software using our award winning PhonicsTutor application and activities to teach the most frequent words of English. PhonicsTutor Frequent Words CD-ROM uses six different frequent word lists, like the Ayres list, and the Orton-Gillingham method, which is chosen by most teachers of students with dyslexia.  By knowing how to read and spell these words, a student will have mastered 96% of all words used in telephone conversations and 76% of all words in print. Used in conjunction with the PhonicsTutor Workbook of Spelling & Grammar more than 93% of all words in print are taught.
