The loss of phonics in schools and the general teaching to the test is really hurting students.

What you described is your coworker's friends doing phonics. The problem is that English is only semi-phonetic. Ime, most people learn English spelling with lots of memorization and repeated exposure to the target words.

Yeah I was aware, they're ~25 so they still got the tail end of phonics. It seems the later stages of school sorta left them behind though.
