I'm here to make even the driest material interesting and personally relatable, and to talk out difficulties when they arise. I hate memorizing, and would much prefer to make everything from Biology to History into exciting (if very small) stories that are not only easy to remember, but actively difficult to forget. I've had tutors that I hated going...

Clifton Reading Tutoring FAQ
Does your child tell you with a disheartened look on their face that the other children in class seem to read out loud well, but they struggle? Or has their grade in their reading class been low, because they just can't seem to understand the difference between an adjective, an adverb, and a noun? Varsity Tutors can find an enthusiastic reading tutor in Clifton, NJ, who is eager to not only help your child improve their reading skills, but also help your child learn to love reading!
Children who struggle to read out loud well in their reading classes can lose confidence in themselves. While your child's teacher would likely love to have ability to give your child all of the individual attention they need to build their reading skills, they simply may not have the time and resources to help every child one-on-one after the main lesson is over. Working one-on-one with a reading tutor in Clifton is an extremely beneficial and effective way for your child to bring their reading skills up to the next level and beyond. Unlike your child's classroom teacher, your child could have their tutor's undivided attention during each and every minute they spend together.
Varsity Tutors' educational directors enjoy helping parents in Clifton find a reading tutor who might help their children succeed in reading class and learn the reading skills they need to understand to read their textbooks, assignment instructions, and test questions in all classes. Your child's tutor will not meet your child with a ready-made plan that they use to help all children get up-to-speed in reading, but instead will form a plan based only after assessing your child's current strengths and weaknesses in phonics, phonemic awareness, reading comprehension, and all of the other building-blocks your child must understand to read well. Once your child's reading weaknesses are located, your child's tutor will make a plan to build those weaknesses while integrating your child's interests into their lessons and making sure to use a teaching technique that works best for your child's personal learning style.
For help finding a reading tutor in Clifton, NJ, contact the educational directors at Varsity Tutors today. Your child's tutor can meet your child any time of morning, afternoon, or evening that is most convenient for your family. You can also choose where your child and their tutor meet. Your child's tutor can come to your home and teach them how to determine the main idea of a sentence and remember the different parts of speech, or you can have your child's tutor meet your child at a local park as they understand phonics and phonemic awareness by practicing reading the names of plants and animals. If it works better for your family, you can instead have your child work with their tutor online with engaging face-to-face interaction as your child finally begins to read and excitement!
