• Sounds-Write – a structured synthetic phonics program based on the science of reading.
• Read3 – an evidence-based program which integrates phonological awareness, systematic synthetic phonics and fluency strategies for children with literacy difficulties
• The Lidcombe Program – a program for young children who are stuttering which encourages fluency through parent or caregiver coaching and capacity-building.
