Phonetic method and apparatus for comprehensive language education through the use of physical tokens each encoding a respective character, e.g., alphabetical blocks, a corresponding baseboard, and a vocal output system. Each block's unique identifier leads to sounding of the appropriate pronunciation of the combination of letters placed on the baseboard, by using a microprocessor that interprets each block's positioning to form a phonetic sound representing the word, and playing resulting sound via speaker attached to the baseboard. Aspects support usage in a group setting like a classroom, with multiple baseboards connected to a central computer that monitors each user's activity related to block placements, which is visually depicted on a screen to the teacher, who can see what changes students are making on the baseboard in real time.
