Edmark Reading Program

Widely regarded as  "The one that works"

The Edmark Reading Program has long helped students who need an alternative to phonics. The key to this success is the program' s use of a carefully sequenced, highly repetitive word-recognition method used to teach sight word vocabulary. This errorless learning approach eliminates incorrect responses and helps students view themselves as successful readers.
