Bergen County Phonics Tutoring FAQ
Phonics fosters reading comprehension. It serves to relate the written word to its corresponding sound. The written letter is the grapheme, and its corresponding sound is the phoneme; phonics serves to reveal the predictable and systematic relationship between the two. This creates phonemic awareness which allows your child to identify and manipulate phonemes, as well as decode the approximately meanings of a new written word by identifying its spelling-sound pattern. This is called blending, and it allows your child to understand the text being read. Phonics is therefore key to improving the literacy skills of your child. However, your child may find it difficult to understand phonics. If your child is struggling with phonics, a professional tutor in Bergen County might be the answer. You can find an expert phonics tutor in Bergen County today by contacting Varsity Tutors' educational directors.
The primary goal of phonics is to establish correspondences between spelling patterns and their related sounds. It thus aims to develop cognitive reading skills by training your child on how to perform lexical and sublexical reading. This requires your child to understand the alphabetic principle that allows for recognition of vowel phonic patterns. A dedicated phonics study plan could help your child understand phonics as well as the basics of writing. Your skilled phonics tutor could help develop this study plan after evaluating the proficiency of your child in the core segments of phonics. This allows for the identification of the problem areas, and your phonics tutor will then tailor the phonics study sessions to focus on and address these areas.
