Definitely worthwhile Love the hooked on phonics application. My daughter at 6 years old has made definite improvements with her reading adding this in our routine. We (my daughter and I) have one complaint, and that there's not enough variety in the games. There are days it takes some coaxing to make it all the way through a lesson of another very predictable game.

This program doesn’t engage my 4 yr old… This program doesn’t engage my 4 yr old nearly enough- and to be honest, it confuses him when he has to match sounds to a certain box when the animals indicated on those boxes DONT have the same sounds as the letters. I feel this could be improved!!

Beware the "Easy Cancellation". Beware the "Easy Cancellation". I just received the program this week and discovered I will not be tutoring my nephew after all. I have been completely unable to cancel through the company. They don't offer cancellation as an option, so you have to go to Customer help. Then you have to deal with the bots where you're offered a menu of articles you can read. When you indicate you want to interact (not "speak") with an agent in online chat they say they will EMAIL me when an agent is available & online. LOLOLOLOL! Thank goodness I signed up through Paypal where I can manage my autopays without Hooked on Phonics' interaction because it is clear they will try to delay or avoid any cancellation.

I ordered this program for my…granddaughter I ordered this program for my granddaughter who was struggling in school due to her poor reading skills. her school does not teach phonics anymore or how to sound out words they just expected her to remember to words. Hook on phonics has been amazing we work on it the entire summer it was super easy to use and they made it fun for her she greatly improved in her reading she is in the 4th grade this year has is almost where she needs to be now. I would recommend this to anyone it is the best thing I could have ever done for my granddaughter.

Great program and Customer Service, Go Tosh B… Tosh and Customer Service took care of my issue quickly even though it was my fault do to address change. My daughter was excited waiting for new packet. Why She so excited???? Because she loves it. Not even 4yo, already reading and spelling. Also, traces and writes her name. I'm a Teacher/Therapist. My child learns in many ways. Home Schooling has been the best for our situation. Hooked on Phonics has been the easiest program to set up and complete. Always remember when teaching, Patients is Golden.
