Thank you for visiting WordsAhead!

Empower academic success with correct and direct instruction in English fluency and literacy.

At any educational level, students who struggle to speak will have trouble reading, and remain ill-prepared. They rightly feel they aren’t able to succeed because they aren’t up-to-speed. For those who seek a better way to teach reading skills, use this site to learn about WordsAhead.

You can systematically make a difference.

• Teach precise pronunciation and sound-spelling.
• Print a SOUND MAP of vowel and consonant sounds.
• “Spell-out” spoken language instead of “sounding-out” text.
• Encode pertinent vocabulary instead of memorizing sight words.
• Spell actual words-to-be-read instead of other word lists.
• Access WA's huge database of sound-coded WORD LISTS.

Mindful word study ahead-of-time will presage continued confidence as learners become ready to inquire, discuss, comprehend, and evaluate increasingly difficult reading assignments. Language is an important way to share whatever matters.
