Spelling demystified.... Feb 03, 2010
By Carol Stevens
"Satisfied Tutor"
I purchased this book to use with a brain injured client because he has to learn to spell and read all over again.
He was confused by the many exceptions to the seemingly innumerable spelling rules/exceptions in our English language. Although the title says Read Instantly, the explanations of the sounds in English mesh naturally with many spelling rules. The order of letters, words and phonic sounds taught builds slowly but steadily to give mastery at every level. Some of the instructions to the teacher are repetitive and not all that helpful, but an experienced teacher will not be hindered by this. In fact, my client began reading the teacher's directions on his own and practically taught himself the content. Try this with anyone who has even the slightest difficulty with reading and spelling. Home school moms and dads, this would work great with children from beginner to intermediate readers who are having difficulty.

"Read Instantly", a title well-suited Mar 12, 2010
By C. Curtis I tutored 40 kids including some with learning disabilities who could not read; they were in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. I had tried other materials but nothing was working with some of them. However, with using "Read Instantly" I was very happy with the results. Every child was able to read regardless of how much they knew before we started. Some of my students didn't speak much English; yet, they read continuously without a stop.
