“I am an ESL teacher with a Master’s degree in teaching reading. I work with children from all around the world and I find that Language Works is a fun and interesting way to teach reading, vocabulary and phonics skills. It helps the students to identify vowel and consonant patterns and make the sound/letter association. The program has provided a missing link in building my early literacy reading program!”
