Building a computer or writing an argumentative essay isn't scary or hard; they just need to be broken down into smaller parts, and then anyone can do it.

Certified Reading Tutor in Duluth, GA
My goal when tutoring is to not only help students learn how to get the right answer but help them understand why that answer is correct. I've found that one of the main reasons students struggle is due to a lack of interest in the material and that this can be solved by making the learning process more personal and engaging.

Duluth Reading Tutoring FAQ
Some children seem to pick up reading quickly, while others fall behind in their reading skills. Why? There are a variety of reasons some children begin to read earlier than others, but the educational directors at Varsity Tutors could help you find a reading tutor in Duluth who will find out why your child isn't as skilled at reading as you had hoped they would be at their age and help your child overcome the obstacles getting in the way of them becoming great at reading!
There are many small stepping stones in the process of learning to read. Children should first understand phonemic awareness, but unfortunately, this step is not taught in most schools. The second step is phonics, the third is understanding fluency, the fourth is understanding what those vocabulary words mean, and the fifth is comprehending what is read. A passionate reading tutor in Duluth will work quickly to assess your child's current understanding of each of these stepping stones in the process of learning to read. Once weaknesses are found, then your child's tutor can quickly get to work building those weaknesses to get your child up-to-speed on their reading skills.
We will match you with a reading tutor in Duluth, GA, who might help your child meet and then surpass the reading goals you have set for them. Your child's tutor won't just help them learn to read well, but also strive to inspire a love of reading in your child. Unlike in your child's school classroom where your child's teacher must choose practice reading materials without taking the interests of each and every student in mind, every word and letter combination your child learns to read can come from their very favorite books based on their favorite cartoon characters or other interests! A love of reading gives a child an edge their entire life, because an avid reader learns so much more inside and outside of the classroom.
If you are looking for a reading tutor near Duluth, GA, Varsity Tutors could help you find a tutor who could meet your needs. Your child's tutor can meet your child any place that is most convenient for your family and at any time of day or evening that you choose. Your child and their tutor can play fun phonics games at the local library in the morning, or they can sing fun rhyming sounds to increase your child's phonemic awareness in the afternoon at your home. An alternative option is to opt to have your child work with their reading tutor online using the Varsity Tutors' live learning platform, which allows for engaging, face-to-face interaction as your child and their tutor work to get your child ahead in reading!
