How Readable English Empowers Students with Dyslexia

Readable English makes the language phonetic, providing a built-in pronunciation guide that supports phonemic awareness, phonics, and orthographic mapping. Students experience easier, more accurate word recognition and increased fluency. By eliminating the need for guessing, Readable English reduces cognitive load and helps students achieve:

  • Better decoding skills
  • Faster recognition of multi-syllabic words
  • Improved comprehension

Who Can Benefit?

Readable English is ideal for students who:

  • Add, omit, or substitute sounds in words
  • Struggle with guessing or mispronouncing words
  • Skip words, read slowly, or dislike reading
  • Display poor comprehension and frequent hesitations
