The English Code Language Training System is an intensive, sequential phonics-based system that teaches the basics of word formation before whole meanings. The approach accommodates and utilizes the three neurological pathways through which people learn, and it teaches to a student's strengths while seeking to improve weaknesses through explicit and systematic phonics instruction.

Most students who have learning disabilities do not respond to normal tutoring.  This is due to the fact that these students have either visual processing deficits, auditory processing deficits, or both.  Normal tutoring attempts to address academic issues using either visual or auditory processing when a multi-sensory approach is required.

The English Code Language Training System provides a systematic and forensic approach to mastering the English language and a solid foundation for reading, writing, and spelling skills for students who are struggling with language acquisition.  With our forensic approach, students can be shown the phonetic nature of the English language and the proper structure of the written language.

Our multi-sensory approach has been organized to provide fluidity of information to ensure success.  Concepts that build upon other concepts have been placed accordingly.  While some of the presentations may appear repetitious, this commonly utilized method enhances the students' exposure to foreign concepts and fosters mastery.

The training system has been divided, primarily, into the following eleven sections:

• Phonics Deck

• Short Vowels

• Syllable Types

• open syllables

• closed syllables

• silent “e” syllables

• vowel team syllables

• “r-controlled” syllables

• consonant + “le” syllables

• Syllable Divisions

• VC/CV

• V/CV

• VC/V

• Long Vowel Spellings (designated by the  location of the long vowel sound in the word)

• “open syllable” spellings

• “one syllable word” spellings

• “middle of the word” spellings

• “end of the word” spellings

• “R-Controlled” Vowels

• -ar

• -er

• -ir

• -or

• -ur
