Long Island Reading Tutoring FAQ
Reading is comprised of five essential skills: fluency, phonics, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, and comprehension. Is your child struggling with one or more of these skills? Does your child lack an interest in reading? Varsity Tutors can help. Our educational directors in Long Island, NY, can find a tutor for your child who can work with their learning style and abilities to try to help them do well in reading.
We can find your child a personal reading tutor in Long Island who will utilize their background knowledge and experience to try to make reading easy to understand and retain. These tutor possess great know-how in Regents test preparation, antonyms and synonyms, affixes and roots, and other components of reading. They can meet with your child in the comfort of their home or any location that is convenient. Face-to-face online tutoring via our online platform is a convenient way for your child to participate in tutoring lessons. Speaking of convenience, if your child has a busy after-school schedule, the tutors are able to work around it so your child doesn't have to choose between extracurricular activities and tutoring sessions.
A professional reading tutor in Long Island, NY, can create a study plan specifically designed for your child. If they take in lessons better by hearing, their tutor can play audio files or speak to assist them in pronouncing big words. Is your child a visual student? Their tutor can write out a difficult word phonetically to help with pronunciation or use books to assist with spelling. Maybe your child wants to take a hands-on approach to learning how to read. Their tutor can give them worksheets or make it into an interactive game. Kids aren't able to use personalized learning styles at school since schools assume students learn in the same way, and that's not true. Tutoring benefits your child by letting them learn in a way that could make them comfortable and facilitates learning. You may have a child who's been called "lazy" or "unmotivated" because they couldn't care less about reading even though they have good reading skills. Their tutor will speak with them to pinpoint what they like, then choose a book to match those interests. They probably dislike reading since students have to read assigned texts rather than ones that pique their interests in school. Your child's tutor is interested in what makes them tick and will do everything in their power to understand and help them.
Varsity Tutors could help your child find a tutor in Long Island to help them create a study plan that ensures they ace their reading course.
