Read Nardagani: Learn to Read – Reading Made Easy
Read Nardagani: Learn to Read is a literacy app by Nardagani Inc. designed for new readers, struggling readers, and ESL (English as a Second Language) learners. It uses a unique system of 12 phonics symbols that represent the multiple sounds made by letters with more than one pronunciation.
Key Features
Symbol-based phonics
12 unique, simple symbols guide learners in decoding sounds and act as "training wheels" for reading. These symbols represent multiple sounds made by letters with more than one pronunciation.
Memory hints
Each letter and symbol is paired with an image making sounds easy to remember.
Interactive learning
Includes engaging lessons, games, quizzes, animated visuals showing mouth/tongue movement for proper pronunciation, practice books, and printable worksheets to support active learning.
Tutor mode
Tutor mode disables the avatar's voice to enable tutors and teachers to guide instruction.
Inclusive design
Suitable for children, adults, ESL learners, and neurodiverse users (autism, dyslexia, ADHD). Works in homeschool, classroom, and tutoring settings.
Program Results & Impact
In 10 pilot programs conducted in schools, detention centers, and international settings, participants of all ages and backgrounds were tested before and after using the Nardagani method. On average, they improved by 2 grade levels in reading within just 2 months. Additional customer testimonial videos and pilot program results can be found at
Curriculum & Support Materials
Fully digital course available on iOS & Android. Printable materials for learners and educators available through the app.
Privacy & Safety
No user data collected or shared. Fully compliant with App Store and Google Play’s Families Policy.
Mission & Origin
Founder’s inspiration
Narda Pitkethly, inspired by Japanese Hiragana, adapted phonics principles to the English language to help her daughter and others facing reading challenges.
Vision
We believe that the ability to read opens doors to knowledge, confidence, and opportunity. Nardagani’s mission is to ensure that no learner — whether a child discovering letters for the first time, an adult improving their skills, or an English learner navigating a new language — is left behind. Through our innovative symbol-based phonics method, we turn the challenge of reading into a joyful, achievable journey for everyone.
