Where Sound Becomes Belonging
The Path That Called Me
Welcome, I am Tammy
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.
Legacy in Motion
Every sound remembered.
Every story retold.
Every breath of belonging shared — becomes a legacy.
The Alphabet System™ is not just about learning.
It is about leaving the world with more song, more connection, and more remembering than we found it.
Each learner, each journey, leaves a trail of light behind —
a legacy in motion.
“I believe sound is a portal—into memory, meaning, and belonging.
Teaching children to read is more than decoding; it’s awakening the language of the heart.”
— Tammy Bick, Creator of The Alphabet System™
