The alphabet is a set of 26 letters that we use to read, write, and spell in English.

- A name
- A sound
- An uppercase (big) form and a lowercase (small) form
Digraphs & Blends
Short & Long Vowels
Digraphs & Blends
A digraph is when two letters come together to make ONE sound.
🗣 You don’t hear each letter separately—you hear one new sound!
A blend is when two or more consonant are put together, and you can still hear each letter.

Digraphs & Blends
A short vowel is the sound a vowel makes when it is not saying its name.
It is a quick and simple sound.

- A as in apple (/ă/)
- E as in bed (/ĕ/)
- I as in pig (/ĭ/)
- O as in top (/ŏ/)

CVC Words

CVC words are simple three-letter words that follow a pattern: Consonant-Vowel-Consonant. These words help beginning English learners and children learn how to sound out and read words by combining basic letter sounds.
🔹 Examples:
- cat (C-V-C)
- pen
- dog
- sun
CVC words are important because they teach phonics, which is the skill of matching sounds to letters. Mastering CVC words is often the first step in learning to read and pronounce words correctly.

Overcoming fear starts with understanding yourself and mastering the basics of whatever you’re trying to conquer. No one is perfect — and the moment you accept discomfort, you unlock the ability to speak more freely and improve your pronunciation faster.
The first lesson is this: mistakes are powerful. They’re not setbacks — they’re your fastest teachers.
The second is repetition. Through repeating sounds and phrases, you train new phonetic muscles and begin to eliminate errors.
The third is consistency. Real progress comes when you apply what you learn every single day. That’s how confidence is built.

Why are pronouns important?
- They help us speak and write more clearly.

Mouth Position Letter
Repetition & Consistency
Mouth Position Letter
Understanding mouth position when saying letters and sounds is very important for English learners because it helps improve pronunciation and clarity. Every sound in English is made by placing the lips, tongue, teeth, and jaw in a specific way. If the mouth position is incorrect, the sound can come out wrong and make it hard for others to understand. For example, the difference between “th” and “s” depends on how the tongue touches the teeth. By learning and practicing correct mouth positions, students can speak more clearly, sound more natural, and feel more confident when speaking English. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference in communication.

They are the foundation of asking and answering questions — a key part of everyday communication. These words help learners gather information, express curiosity, and participate in real-life situations like asking for directions, learning about someone, or solving a problem. By mastering these question words, students gain the ability to explore topics, build deeper conversations, and improve both their speaking and listening skills. They're small words, but they open big doors to understanding and connection.

We often believe that success comes from learning everything first — and only then can we begin. But that’s backwards.
Success begins with action. With doing, speaking, and moving forward before you feel ready.
The real secret is this: speak, know, become.
You can’t become who you’re meant to be without first trying.
But most people never try — not because they lack ability, but because they’re afraid. And that fear? It’s usually just fear of embarrassment.
