How can a Phonics tutor help you?
Learning to read requires understanding phonics on a functional level. Your child must learn to decode the sounds that are represented by individual letters. This is essential for reading and spelling, as well as for moving on to subsequent stages of the learning process. Despite them being young, your child may undergo an intensive learning process that may help them sound out words and eventually read without having to stop and think much about each word. Is your child having trouble in this area, or do you want to make sure they stay on track? Varsity Tutors may help you find an experienced phonics tutor in Boston, MA, who may try to help your student attain success, by creating a study plan focused on them.
An expert phonics tutor in Boston may help make the most of your child's study time. They'll focus on the exact materials needed to get your student up to speed. At first, the instructor may assess their proficiency and identify the areas they need the most work on. If your child has understood some aspects of phonics, they don't have to continuously rehash these concepts. The independent tutor may focus on phonological awareness or use techniques such as the odd word out or word to word matching to give your child a multi-faceted view of the underlying ideas.
