My Best Websites for Phonics with ESOL students.
My students all have access to Microsoft Teams and after a lot of practice they can now log on and click on their class Team independently. When they have logged on they can click on the websites I post and access them on their mobiles. This has been really useful in enabling my learners to practice at home. If you want to know more about using Microsoft Teams with a low literacy class, let me know in the comments box below and I will post more information about it when I have time.
Here are my best self-study phonics websites and videos:
- Citizen Literacy – Reading and Writing for Everyone This is an excellent app for reviewing basic literacy and phonic skills.

Phonics is a method of teaching reading and writing that focuses on the relationship between sounds and their written symbols. It involves breaking down words into their individual phonemes (sounds) and teaching the corresponding letter combinations that represent those sounds. By understanding these connections, learners can decode words more effectively, improving their ability to read and spell. Phonics instruction typically progresses from simple letter-sound associations to more complex phonetic patterns, helping learners develop strong foundational literacy skills.
