Hello Debbie! Hope you are well! I have just finished the PI course and it was fantastic - the last unit about the programme (Module 13) was particularly helpful to assimilate all of the practical information from the course! So many things said resonated within me and I have thought about in my te...

Here is a very heartwarming message from a Chinese 'mum' in China doing the course - that is devoted motherhood is it not! The most enjoyable thing for me to do every day now is to study Debbie’s programme. I’m literally her biggest fan in China currently. I have finished 67% of the online train...

I am already using the Phonics International programme in my class since 2016 with great success. I love the programme and was able to convince my principal that this would be ben...

I'm really pleased that my training is understood to supplement, or complement, other phonics training provision. In my view, this is how it should be. At some point, then, teachers (and others) are more fully equipped to decide how they will teach, or which phonics programmes they might prefer for ...

LOL - This was nice to hear from an admin person....!

Good afternoon,

Firstly, our teachers have completed the course and are very complimentary - they found it very useful.

Could we please have an invoice for 1 more member of staff?

Thanks,
:wink:

It's very good to receive this comment from a student-teacher: I just want to let you know how informative I found this course. There are elements that have made me think and reflect on my teacher training placements. I will use what I learn in my NQT year. Thank you! I wish I knew as a student-teac...
