Marilyn Martyn

As a child Marilyn Martyn was a passionate reader. The "Wind in the Willows" is still her favorite book. Reading it brings back happy memories of a childhood surrounded by books.

She remembers her first day at school and the steps she took learning to read. There were easy moments and frustrating ones when a word wouldn't decode easily.

In the 'good' old days children were taught to read from a graded series of books called 'readers'. By the end of second grade a student would be a fluent reader and understood how words are spelled. The readers were mastered step by step.

Marilyn has found these books she learned to read with and is amazed at the depth of material they contain.

Marilyn trained as a teacher and librarian specializing in children's literature developed a career around her love of books and reading.

She also spent some time as an education consultant for two publishers, visiting many schools.

She has taught children from prep grade to year nine in secondary schools.

She found opportunities to teach children who had difficulty learning to read. She taught many students in schools and still does this as a private tutor.

After sitting with many frustrated students who did not know how to decode (sound out) words, Marilyn devised a series of lessons that gave them the ability to decode quickly. These lessons are the foundation of her book.

Modern reading research found what her teachers already knew. Early, systematic and explicit teaching of how to hear the sounds in words and how to sound out words is vital in the early stages of learning to read.
