About This Website
Welcome to the Phonics Literacy website.
My name is Miranda Love.
I teach literacy to learners at both ends of the spectrum, from young children through to adults.
I became passionate about creating this website after working with struggling adults learners. Many told me they couldn’t spell their children’s names, write a shopping list or fill in a form!
Their literacy skills were so low they couldn‘t function in everyday life. Sadly, they discovered that if they couldn’t learn to read, they couldn’t learn anything else.
So what was their problem? They’d never learned to read (decode words) or spell words (encode words) using phonics. Some of my adult students struggled for up to half a century without help.
I am determined to see children get the correct help before their self-esteem plummets and their desire to learn is crushed. They can’t be allowed to go through what I have seen in my adult learners.
I also want adults to realise that it’s never too late to start again. They can make enormous progress at any age if taught phonics in a systematic way.
