What does it look like to bring the Science of Reading and the Science of Learning together in day-to-day instruction?

Join us on September 29 for a practical, free “show and tell.” We’ll unpack the components of integrated instruction and show what it looks like with students—both through EBLI and in the broader classroom.

Is Linguistic Phonics more effective and efficient? Why or why not?

Nora Chahbazi of EBLI joins Marnie Ginsberg of Reading Simplified and education journalist Holly Korbey for a timely conversation about the role of phonics and the bigger picture of effective reading instruction.

The interview was recorded this week and is free to listen to for the next two weeks.

Comprehension is not separate from the work of reading words.

“Segmenting, or pulling sounds apart, is highly correlated with comprehension.” — Nora Chahbazi, EBLI Founder

When learners can identify the individual sounds in a spoken word and connect those sounds to spellings, they have a clearer path to accurate word reading. As reading becomes more accurate and automatic, more attention can be available for understanding the text.

That is why EBLI integrates phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, spelling, writing, and handwriting instead of treating them as isolated skills.

Something important is happening in the national literacy conversation.

Education Week has published a follow-up article examining the phonics debate and how the Science of Reading movement is evolving. Linguistic Phonics is part of the discussion, and EBLI is mentioned.

After the first discussion sparked more than 150 comments on Education Week’s page, the conversation is clearly resonating.

For EBLI, this is significant: a national education publication is bringing more attention to instruction that begins with speech and connects sounds to the spellings that represent them.

A lifelong goal. The tools to finally teach reading with confidence.

After years of trying one approach after another, intervention teacher Teresa Galvin found in EBLI the training and tools she had been looking for.

“EBLI has given me the tools to best do what I've wanted to do my whole life--teach reading. I spent years trying approach after approach and have finally found the most amazingly effective method ever. And it's so fun to use! I am so grateful to you for creating it and for providing such a phenomenal training program (ETSL).”

Teresa Galvin, Intervention Teacher

For Teresa, EBLI made the work she had always wanted to do feel both effective and joyful.

Can EBLI work with an existing curriculum?

Yes. EBLI provides foundational instruction in reading, spelling, writing, and handwriting. It can be used alongside a content-rich ELA or knowledge-building curriculum, or as comprehensive intervention instruction.

Once students learn the EBLI processes, educators can carry them into science, social studies, and any subject that requires reading and writing.

What if learning to read felt less cluttered?

EBLI begins with the sounds in spoken words instead of adding letter names, rules, syllable types, and other information that can increase cognitive load. Learners focus on how the English code actually works: sounds connect to spellings, and that same code is used to read and write.

For students receiving intervention and students learning in the classroom, this clearer process helps the information flow and makes the logic of the code easier to see and apply.

Literacy support is not only for early readers.

On International Youth Day, EBLI recognizes older learners working toward faster reading, stronger comprehension, and greater confidence with demanding text.

The High Level Video Lesson on EBLI’s Parent Resources page is designed for teens and adults who want to improve reading speed and comprehension for timed tests. It uses advanced content and is not intended for remediation.
