Lawrence Reading Tutoring FAQ
The Common Core Literacy Standards dictate what your student should be taught at their grade level. If your child is not learning as swiftly as expected, or you want to ensure they stay on course, help is available. From phonics to writing and summarizing, a tutor could go a long way in boosting their potential. Word recognition and decoding are major stepping stones, and you want to try to make sure your student understands these essential concepts. If you are seeking reading tutors near Lawrence, MA, for your child, Varsity Tutors can help connect them with a tutor who could meet their needs.
Classroom teachers are often restricted to a "one-size fits all" format. Let us match your student with an expert reading tutor in Lawrence, who will put their needs first. The tutor will identify their individual weaknesses. Any such topics will be targeted for personalized instruction. The tutor has the tools to engage your child and track their progress with each lesson. They even have experience teaching in different ways, so a proper method can be found that matches your child's learning style.
A tutor can work on a range of topics. Each custom-tailored session can cover antonyms and synonyms, rhyme, story mapping, or making inferences, or whatever your child needs to work on most. Familiar aspects of reading don't have to be emphasized, but the tutor will teach everything needed to get your child ahead of the class. Whatever the goals are for short- or long- term, call Varsity Tutors today to find reading tutors in Lawrence.
A reading tutor can meet at a time your child is available and clear-minded. If the school day is full, they'll meet in the evening. A Saturday or Sunday afternoon can be set aside for tutoring as well. If your child is that busy, and is comfortable with remote instruction, then face-to-face meetings can be set up online. A live learning platform supports efficient remote tutoring, so your child gets as much preparation for their course or the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System exam.
In addition, the tutor is familiar with all the basic skills required for reading comprehension. They know how to increase phonemic awareness, and are familiar with various strategies for teaching reading. Knowledgeable on the latest research, they'll apply state-of-the-art tools to boost your child's potential. Whatever it takes, an expert reading tutor in Lawrence, MA, could help your child try to do their best on test day.
