When phonics isn't enough

Has phonics not been enough for your child?

If your child is still struggling with reading, spelling or writing, they may need a different approach.

I offer specialist morphology-based tuition to support children with dyslexia and ongoing literacy difficulties - particularly where phonics alone has not been effective.

When phonics isn’t enough

Many children complete phonics programmes but continue to:

• struggle with spelling
• find reading difficult
• have poor reading comprehension
• lack confidence in writing

This can be frustrating for both children and parents.
A different approach is sometimes needed.

What is morphology?

Morphology is the study of how words are built using meaning units (morphemes).

Children learn to recognise:

• prefixes (e.g. un-, re-)
• root words
• suffixes (e.g. -ing, -tion)

This helps children to:
• improve spelling accuracy
• understand vocabulary
• access meaning when reading

Morphology Tuition for Schools

Morphology intervention can also be delivered in schools as small group or 1:1 support.

This is particularly effective for pupils who continue to struggle despite quality phonics teaching.

Reduced school rates and block bookings available.
Please get in touch to discuss provision.
