How successful is the Program?

The Phono-Graphics Reading Program was created and introduced by American educators in the late 90's; modified and tailored for children schooling in very competitive settings, the PGRP was conceived with this in mind. It had been researched, tested and proven to be highly effective. Children who have completed the program are able to read at third grade level or even much higher.
