Abstract
This paper explores the effectiveness of initial vernacular education for successful transfer to English. The data is drawn from the personal, innovative experiences of a local vernacular elementary school teacher in Papua New Guinea, who helped individual children to gain literacy skills in the local vernacular. As a result, the children were able to transfer their skills to other languages including English. This success has brought much joy not only to the teacher but also to the children and their parents.
