Apparently, some schools in the U.S. didn't teach phonics until recently (2014).

Did anyone here learn phonics in school?

I didn’t, for me it was “Ai, Bee, See, Dee, Eee, Eff, Jee” (except in my local language Danish). My children all learnt phonics in their U.K. school and it’s taught them to read 5x faster I’d say).
