I can't thank you enough for an amazing experience at Color Vowel Basics. [It gave me] the strategy and structure I was looking for on behalf of my students. The work you have done is truly remarkable. It's true that simplicity lies at the far side of complexity.
I am completely in awe of this teaching tool and the techniques that have been presented. I thought the R-controlled vowel explanations were brilliant. I plan to go all the way through Level 3 in the training.
I love using the Color Vowel® Approach because it works! Students tell me how helpful it has been not only for pronunciation but also for spelling, specifically for students for whom the Roman alphabet is new. I am so thankful to have this resource!
