How can a Phonics tutor help you?
Understanding phonics is a significant part of learning how to read, speak, and communicate in writing. Many early elementary students have trouble with concepts such as word to word matching and sound to word matching. While phonemic awareness, along with other components of phonics, are covered in the classroom, a private tutor can try to help your youngster get past any difficulties with phonics quickly, and move forward toward greater fluency. Varsity Tutors could help you to find an independent, professional phonics tutor in Portsmouth, VA.
Before you could help your youngster improve his or her phonics abilities, you need to know where their greatest struggles are occurring. A skilled phonics tutor in Portsmouth can assess your student's abilities to try to help them perform their best in phonics. The tutor will measure phonemic awareness, your child's ability to hear and work out rhymes, and evaluate their grasp of short vowels and long vowels. After a comprehensive evaluation, the tutor will be able to design a customized plan that will tackle the challenges your student faces and help to boost performance and comfort. Children who have a problem with phonics can feel embarrassed and anxious in the classroom, and that will only set them back in other subjects. Keep your student confident and successful by having them work one-on-one with a phonics tutor.
