The method extracts individual words from a source text, in sequence of occurrence, and subsequently inserts these words in a vocabulary database table. Insertion only takes place if the said table does not yet contain that particular word. When the insertion process is completed, individual words are presented to the student to exercise. When the student reaches fluency in reading individual words, the source text from which they were extracted is presented and the student is able to read the text fluently. As the student progresses, the vocabulary table grows, allowing the source texts to contain more words, as only new words are exercised. The method's advantages are: Deliver positive reading experiences within days; The ability to teach a student how to read with materials at par with the student's verbal intelligence; The ability to teach reading in a non-technical manner, very close to the normal reading experience.
