Rooted in Sounds is both our brand and methodology. It’s a clear, visual, structured approach to literacy that teaches children to connect the sound they hear with the letter they see and write. This sound-letter-writing connection is the strongest, research‑supported foundation for reading and writing.
The Reading and Writing Success System is our structured programme for ages 2.5–15+. It includes student workbooks, guidebooks, audio files, video demonstrations, and teaching tools. The system is designed to support all learners, including dyslexic students and older learners who need to rebuild foundational literacy skills.
Our system is designed for parents, tutors, teachers, homeschooling families, NGOs, learning centres, and organisations serving learners aged 2.5–15+. It also supports older learners who need to revisit and strengthen foundational literacy.
Unlike many programmes, Rooted in Sounds is grounded in contemporary reading science and explicitly teaches the sound–letter–writing connection. Our animal‑themed resources and visual tools make learning memorable and enjoyable, while our structured steps ensure progress is clear and achievable.

No. Our guidebooks and workbooks provide step‑by‑step instructions so parents can teach with confidence at home.
Parents follow the guidebooks alongside the student workbooks. Each guidebook provides step‑by‑step instructions, teaching notes, and practical tips. This makes it easy for families to support literacy at home with confidence.
Most families notice improvements in confidence and fluency within weeks, as learners connect sounds, letters, and writing through daily practice.
Tutors and teachers can access licensed programmes that include training, resources, and clear lesson pathways. This ensures consistency across sessions and classrooms, while adapting to each learner’s needs.
By the end of Workbook 1, learners can decode simple words and begin correct letter formation. By Workbook 2, they can read phrases and handle consonant clusters. By Workbook 3, they can read and write full sentences, use punctuation, and begin comprehension. Each stage builds confidence and fluency.
