Phonics Courses

Following on from the highly successful 2-day synthetic phonics course run in the UK in the summer of 2012, two further courses have been scheduled for 2013.
Both courses will take place in Newbury, Berkshire, UK - each over a 2-day period.
The dates are as follows:
29th-30th May 2013
28th-29th August 2013
Places will be limited so
please book early!

Last summer, we provided our first two-day course for individuals and it was a heartwarming event.

Individuals from various countries attended - Spain (several from different parts of Spain), Hong Kong, Nigeria and the UK. We remain in regular touch with some of the people from the training!

These training events are in response to individuals from many parts of the world that enquire about training events - but in the main we have provided training events in schools and for local authorities or universities.

The events are our attempt to cater for individuals and to support them with their needs for moving forwards in their contexts.

Last summer, people attended with an interest in all ages, for teaching English as a second or new language, for working with special needs of all ages, for people with their own schools or who are managers in their schools- and even an individual parent who wanted to know more to help her own children!

Superb weather for our Summer 2013 event:

Fantastic, convivial 2-day training event for individuals - our latest event (9th and 10th April 2014) included ladies from Australia, Nigeria, Luxembourg, Germany and England!

Without doubt, truly 'international'!

We always get wonderful feedback following our two-day training courses for 'all-comers' (this was from our April 2015 course) - and excitingly, as you can see, I'm hoping to get a Welsh Alphabetic Code Chart to add to my charts' site here:

: Thank you for an amazing two day course

Dear Debbie,

I just had to let you know how much I enjoyed your course this week - It has given me so much to think about and I am just so busy reading through and trying to absorb every single thing you taught us over such an intense and fascinating two days.

If you are thinking of a Welsh language code chart at some point I have been in touch with my friend on Anglesey - ( Welsh is her first language and the family speak Welsh at home). She thinks she may have found someone who would be able to help. She also stressed how vital it is to keep the language alive - A code chart could not only help children at school in Wales but would also be such a useful tool for encouraging the growing number of adults living there and learning the language.
