The Language Zone use an innovative method to help English students to read French, working with the French specialist Francis Ribano who created this Facilecture method. It is actually a simple code of 11 colours that enable children to "see the sounds" (or indeed notice silent letters immediately) and this is a great help for pronunciation/reading/writing. The children response has been very positive so far!
