I learned to read phonetically, sounding out the words. It worked very well. No other scheme for learning to read has worked remotely as well.

- taeric 1y agoI think I was too swayed by Sold a Story; but I am heavily convinced that the non phonics based attempts to teach reading was a massive disaster. And not just for reading literature, but also for reading math. Without learning to effectively interact with symbols, people grow to think they either get the math or they don't.
