Katie Whitehead

Katie Whitehead is an early years educator and phonics specialist known as Phonics Family, and she is the author of The Essential Phonics Toolkit. The book is published by SAGE Publications and presents practical phonics guidance for educators, from phonological awareness through to supporting confident readers.

Publicly available information also identifies a Katie Whitehead with a separate academic profile as a Professor of Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, with degrees from the University of Delaware and UC Santa Barbara. Because the book listing and the academic profile point to different professional backgrounds, I cannot verify from the available sources that they are the same person; for a retailer biography, the safest verified description is that Katie Whitehead is the author of The Essential Phonics Toolkit and an early years educator and phonics specialist.
