Cambridge Phonics Tutoring FAQ
Learning to read is a critical milestone in your child's education and is the gateway to every subject and test such as the MCAS that your child faces in school. However, it is fairly common for them to struggle as a beginner, as English can sometimes be a difficult language to decode. Additionally, every student has a different pace in learning and may fall behind. In this case, tutoring could greatly benefit your child. The educational directors at Varsity Tutors could help you find Cambridge, MA, tutors to strive to ensure your child doesn't fall behind in phonics.
Varsity Tutors will find tutors in Cambridge that have experience in English, ESL, and Education. Initially, your child's tutor will identify their strongest and weakest area. From that point, they can create a comfortable and engaging environment that meets the specific needs of your child. Tutors are flexible when it comes to scheduling; you can set-up a meeting at your home or another preferred location. Furthermore, Varsity Tutors can provide tutors who will schedule face-to-face online tutoring for your student's comfort and ease. Let us connect you with a talented phonics tutor in Cambridge, MA, who is truly excited about phonics and teaching it to others.
Varsity Tutors will find you tutors that could give your child the confidence he or she needs to get through even the hardest reading materials. Phonics tutoring works so well because it doesn't teach your child to memorize how words are read. Instead, your child's tutor will give them materials and the knowledge needed to decipher any word they come across. As a result, their vocabulary and writing skills are also expanded. Also Varsity Tutors chooses tutors that are able to provide a more fun, engaging and one-on-one environment, rather than a traditional classroom environment.
All of the tutors that our educational directors can connect you with in Cambridge are skilled in teaching phonics. According to what level your child is at, tutors can begin with beginner's lessons such as single consonant/vowel sounds and blending sounds to more complex lessons such as contractions and irregular spelling words. Moreover, tutors may give reading assignments that will test your child's ability to learn the lesson. Whether, it's to give your child a head start in reading or to help them practice the lessons; we promise to only provide you with a high-quality tutor. Varsity Tutors could help you streamline your studying to suit your specific needs by finding you a skilled phonics tutor in Cambridge today.
