Phonics — connecting letters and letter combinations to their sounds, then blending them into words — is the foundational skill nearly every other reading and writing skill depends on. Children who fall behind on phonics early often struggle silently for years afterward if the gap isn't caught and closed while it's still small. This is exactly where working with a dedicated IB PYP Phonics tutor makes the biggest difference.

Our IB PYP Phonics tutors work one-to-one with Early Years and lower PYP children, building letter-sound knowledge, blending and segmenting skills through playful, multi-sensory activities matched to your child's exact stage — never rushing ahead or leaving genuine gaps unaddressed.

Our Structured Path to IB PYP Phonics Confidence

A systematic methodology designed to identify gaps, build knowledge, and secure performance under exam conditions.

1

Friendly Diagnostic Session

We start with a relaxed, low-pressure session to see exactly where your child is on the IB PYP Phonics continuum — letter sounds, blending or segmenting — before building a plan.

2

Personalised Learning Plan

Your tutor builds a plan matched to your school's current Unit of Inquiry and your child's continuum phase, not a generic age-based assumption.

3

Weekly One-to-One Lessons

Regular, engaging online or home sessions that build genuine confidence first, then apply it to playful, multi-sensory phonics activities your child actually enjoys.

4

Continuum Practice & Portfolio Support

Structured, playful practice matched to your child's current phase, plus support putting together strong pieces for their learning portfolio.

5

Ongoing Review & Encouragement

Regular, positive check-ins celebrate real progress and quietly close any gaps — PYP is about steady growth, not exam-day pressure.
