About Phonics: Phonics is a way of teaching children how to read and write. It helps children hear, identify and use different sounds that distinguish one word from another in the English language. I am currently recruiting Teaching assistants confident and with knowledge of delivering Phonics e.g Jolly Phonics, Read Write Inc, Letters & Sounds, to support teachers and help children with their educational and social development, both in and out of the classroom.

Please contact Spencer at Empowering Learning if you have Phonics experience and are looking for work as a Teaching Assistant
