HOW CAN WE HELP?

SERVICES

Old School Phonics is helping learners gain confidence and success in reading, writing and spelling.

With the option of parent training and individual or small group sessions, prices start from $90 per week.

Old School Phonics strongly encourages parents and carers to sit in and observe all sessions. Here you will gain a greater understanding of the skills and concepts being taught and be in a genuine position to offer meaningful support at home.
