Learning to read in English is difficult.
Sounds English Phonics is designed to make reading fun and is aimed at early readers who are typically between 6 & 9 years old.

In addition, the app can be used by anybody who wants to learn English as a foreign language.Set in the imaginary world of Lumos, Sounds English Phonics accelerates learning reading by identifying 92 essential written sounds and teaching the learner how to use those sounds to read new words.
Proven results
A study was carried out in St John’s Green School, Essex, United Kingdom with a sample size of sixty one children in Year 3 aged between 8-9 years old.
A group used Sounds English Phonics in the classroom during the school day and was scheduled to spend fifteen minutes a day using the app over 20 school days (a 30 day period), within their scheduled standard literacy class.

Sounds English Phonics was 2.8 times more effective than the standard programme within the study period of only 30 days.
The majority of students using Sounds English Phonics gained more than a year in reading age in the test period.
The average gain amongst this test group was 11 months within a 20 school day period.
Every student in the test group improved their reading age.
Additionally, 42% of children in the test group learnt all 92 written sounds within 15 school days and 100% learnt all 92 in 20 school days.
