Testimonials
My dictation results have improved by more than ten marks after using Phonics i-Learner! I don't find dictation that hard now. Even though school teaches phonics too, I find Phonics i-Learner a lot more interesting. I love playing the games on Phonics i-Learner and I love the exercises too. I can more or less spell what the teacher says in class. I am more confident. And I like to speak up more in class now!
I love Phonics i-Learner. The teacher's voice is vivid! I have just joined the programme three months ago. I have listened to the whole course many times - it is just like listening to stories - so interesting that I don't feel bored at all. There are a lot of games there. I will use my Easter holiday to do more exercises and play the games again. I want to be able to do level 2 quickly! Oh, finally, I think Phonics i-Learner can help me to do better in the Speech Festival!
Kin Hei and I love Phonics i-Learner. I will listen to the story first and then put down the key points. Then I will learn phonics together with Kin Hei module by module, story by story. Since Kin Hei understands the rules of phonics and enjoys stories, he is very motivated to learn more. I have learnt a lot about phonics too!
Kin Hei was very scared of new English words. He is not now. He is more confident and he will read aloud according to the rules he learnt from Phonics i-Learner. Phonics i-Learner has really helped him with his English and I will let him work on Level Two of the programme!
My vocabulary and listening have improved dramatically after using i-Learner. I can use new words in my compositions and I can read with better understanding now. Also, my listening has improved a lot and I am happy.
