I'm not sure which method they used with me. In fact I don't remember anything about my learning-to-read process... except I knew how to read before entering school (yes, 'bookworm' is a proper term :), and I remember, in one vivid flash, the moment when I called my mom while pointing at an uppercase 'X' in a book, and asked 'How do you read this?'. --Pablo Flores
