In the past few years, 37 states have passed laws requiring phonetic reading instruction for all children because research has proven that these Science of Reading methods result in reading success. Emily Hanford, the APM author of “Sold A Story”, informed the public of the prevalence of faulty reading instruction known as “3 Cueing” in American schools. Because most universities have not offered courses in methods of phonetic instruction, teachers need to be retrained.
The National Assessment of Educational Progress tests 4th and 8th graders annually. Their statistics reveal that 68% of American children failed to pass proficiency tests in reading, and 30% of those children lacked basic reading skills. These statistics have remained unchanged for many years. However, in states that recently converted their reading instruction to evidence-based phonics, the reading scores rose dramatically. Sue’s Strategies® new text, her twentieth publication, provides parents and teachers with the knowledge and practices they need to ensure every individual’s civil right to learn to read. With a Sue’s Strategies® program, children and adults learn to read with 90% accuracy within one year.

Benefits of an Effective, Phonetic, Reading Program
- Most students will achieve reading proficiency on the NAEP tests and graduate high school.
- Schools will save hundreds of thousands of dollars on special education programs because children will read on or above grade level.
- Fewer children will suffer from anxiety, depression, or bullying due to their inability to read and their ensuing lack of self-esteem.
- The pipeline to prison will be reduced since readers can usually qualify for paying jobs instead of turning to crime.
About Susan B. Kahn
Sue Kahn is an education pioneer, revolutionizing how people acquire literacy skills. Through her innovative techniques, children and adults can achieve an impressive 90% reading accuracy in just one year. Sue propels Dr. Orton’s teachings into the 21st century by seamlessly integrating multimedia, multi-sensory, and multi-mnemonic instruction. Sue also uses these techniques for teaching grammar, comprehension, and writing skills
Because Sue’s dyslexic, dysgraphic son could not read or write at the end of first grade and because her Master’s Degree in Education did not give her the tools to teach her son, Susan completed thirty additional graduate credits in special needs plus an Orton-Gillingham language therapy certification from Massachusetts General Hospital. Then she taught her child to read and write. He graduated from college with a BS degree and from business school with an MBA.
Based on her personal experiences, Susan’s career focus changed to children with learning challenges. She taught dyslexic and dysgraphic students in MA public schools and adults for the MA Rehabilitation Commission. Susan now tutors private students, writes books, creates videos and blogs, and advocates for children. Discover the difference Sue’s Strategies® solutions can make!
