Baltimore Reading Tutoring FAQ
Does your child struggle to remember the difference between homophones and homographs? Or, maybe they have trouble keeping straight all the different types of figurative language? Perhaps they just need someone to lend a helping hand. Varsity Tutors will locate a reading tutor in Baltimore who will use the most up-to-date resources to try to help your child excel in reading. A professional reading tutor will tailor a lesson plan to fit their needs and work with them one-on-one at your home or anywhere you like, or they can meet your child face-to-face online using our live learning platform. It's all about what works best for you and your child.
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? Our directors will match your child with a great reading tutor in Baltimore who might help them to meet their academic and test score goals. Getting better at reading is possible with someone to guide your child every step of the way. Contact Varsity Tutors to find an experienced reading tutor in Baltimore, MD, who can provide a positive environment that may make it easy to learn and understand.
