The History of SpellRead
SpellRead is built around the discoveries of Kay MacPhee. Inspired by her son, who was born profoundly deaf, Kay spent 25 years learning and developing techniques to enable the hearing-impaired to develop language skills and learn how to read.
At the request of a local physician, Kay began to work with students who were said to be learning disabled or dyslexic and found that they could not hear the sounds of the language either, similar to a hearing-impaired student.
