My background is interdisciplinary and broad. I am a practicing attorney in Washington, DC with prior careers in technology consulting and intelligence analysis. I have bachelor...

Parisa: Baltimore Reading tutor
Certified Reading Tutor in Baltimore, MD

I often struggled to understand relatively simple concepts, especially when compared to my classmates, whether that was in test-taking or in any academic subject. So, I know what it's like to really wrestle with a subject, and I know what kind of assistance is helpful (and what kind of assistance/teaching is not). I think this--empathizing with a student and knowing the difference between good and...

Improving reading comprehension not only increases vocabulary but also helps with gaining meaning from reading material, and that's a great benefit in other areas of study as well. However, this can seem like an impossible task when you don't know where to start. Maryland's College and Career-Ready Standards for English Language Arts focus on grades K-12. Students are expected to show a certain level of competency in areas like foundational skills, informational text, and literature by the end of each grade. That's where we come in. Our educational directors in Baltimore, MD, can locate a reading tutor who might help your child meet those goals and excel on their exams.
If your child needs to learn more about affixes and roots or wants a better understanding of story elements like sequencing, theme, and cause and effect, tutoring can be a tremendous help. Your child can work at their own pace in a place where they're comfortable. Maybe they want to enjoy a sunny day outside at Cylburn Arboretum while working on their reading. Maybe they're more at ease in their own home. The tutor's aim is to work with the student in a setting that's free of distractions so it's easier to focus.
Does your child need extra help in meeting requirements to move to the next elementary grade? Or, do they need assistance with the transition to middle school or high school?
