I’ve always been curious — not just about what we teach, but why it works.

As a special education teacher, I spent years buried in paperwork, interventions, and mandates... but underneath it all was a deeper pull.

I wasn’t just trying to teach students to read.
I was listening for the sounds beneath the words — the patterns no one seemed to be asking about.

That’s how The Alphabet System™ was born.
Not as another curriculum, but as an unfolding —
an invitation to step into a new kind of knowing.
A knowing rooted in connection, dignity, and the belief that no learner should ever feel broken.
