Some teachers think that English is not a phonetic language and why should we teach through this method. It is true learners need to learn a lot of words through whole word method and other ways and they need to read a lot of books to develop their vocabulary. Still to begin with we can help them with a simple way of dealing with this complex language. Once they learn how to read individual sounds and CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant) words they can start reading very simple story books that helps them discover the pleasure of reading. Once they learn to read they will be able to learn the complexities of the language gradually.
