Private In-Home and Online Tutoring Near You
Receive personally tailored lessons from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations. Varsity Tutors helps thousands of people asking, "How do I connect with the best tutors near me?"
If your child is not reading as well as you would like them to at their age, a personal reading tutor could help your child improve their reading skills. Every child who struggles to read faces a unique challenge, and a tutor can figure out what is behind your child's reading difficulty and then get their reading skills caught up to where they need to be to excel in their reading classes and on the STAAR tests.
Our educational directors at Varsity Tutors will connect you with a skilled reading tutor in Grand Prairie, TX, who will work to try to give the knowledge in your child that they need to thoroughly understand reading. Whether your child is struggling with basic phonics, just needs to try to improve their reading speed and accuracy, or has good basic word pronunciation skills but struggles with comprehension, there is a tutor who might help them meet their and your reading goals.
We can find you an expert reading tutor in Grand Prairie to optimize your study time with your child. As a parent, you may be trying to try to help your child read the best you can by having them try to read books around the house, but a tutor could help them advance in their reading skills much more quickly by using professional reading teaching methods. Since your child's teacher is using one method that isn't working well for your child, your child's tutor will use a different teaching method tailored to your child's unique learning style.
Tutors also know lots of tips and tricks to help children struggling to read catch up quickly. For example, if your child is having trouble with phonics, their tutor can teach them the building blocks of phonics called phonemic awareness, which is a step that school teachers typically skip. Phonemes are the basic sounds all words are made of, and many educational professionals agree that children who are taught to simply identify and understand phonemes have a much easier time learning phonics.
While there are many other reasons children struggle to learn reading, it can be due to a clash in your child's personality and their teacher's. Many children need a lot of positive reinforcement when learning to read, and some teachers just neglect this important part of the learning process. Let us find you a reading tutor in Grand Prairie, TX, who will understand your child's needs and offer positive reinforcement to make the learning process easier.
While your schedule is likely busy, your child's tutor can meet your child and you any time you have to spare, even if it is early in the morning or late in the evening. Your child's tutor can also meet the two of you anywhere it is most convenient for your family, whether that is at your home, at a park, or even at your child's favorite ice cream shop! Alternatively, you can choose to have your child work with their tutor completely online using the face-to-face Varsity Tutors Live Learning Platform.
