Likes: Is very complete. Comes with workbooks, readers, white boards, and magnet tiles. Each unit comes with 4 lessons and the 5th day unit test. It teachers individual sounds and blends, syllables, finger stretching to note the sounds in a word, spelling words, sight words, and alphabet recognition. The teacher's manual tells you exactly how to word things. The online part of the lesson will give you audio sounds for each letter or blend.

Dislikes: Is not good for the child that sees letters as shapes. Some of the pictures on the worksheets don't make sense because you would think of a different word for the picture.
