Welcome to the International Communication Learning Institute
There must be a way for all of us who are capable of thought to learn to the best of
our abilities and be taught in the way that is best for us. (Millie Snow, 1982.)

From the Egyptian Pyramids to Sequoyah's Cherokee alphabet, written language continues to be a powerful means of preserving culture, values and shared knowledge. The ability to read and write is a basic human right, almost as basic as freedom itself. ICLI is commited to teach this ability to as many people as possible.
Visual Phonics puts into perspective not only the written form of language but the real power of language, which is sound.
It opens a door for those who do not have access to all of the learning modes; it gives them access to something that they have not had before, and it is a light going on that permits them to read, to think, to feel to learn language, and to communicate as we all communicate.
It is a great joy to us to know that since 1982 many hundreds of thousands of children and adults have used See the Sound - Visual Phonics to improve their reading, spelling and communication skills.
As you investigate the links on the left we hope you will realize that there is something new here that you haven't heard before, that rather than being just another reading and speech program, this may be an entirely new approach to language that opens the door of sound.
