Mesa Reading Tutoring FAQ
Reading is an essential skill. But reading comprehension doesn't come as easily to some children as it does to others. If your child is having a very hard time in their reading class, give them help right away with personalized attention from a tutor. We'll help you find a great one. Any of the independent reading tutors that Varsity Tutors can connect your child with in Mesa are experienced professionals.
As a child first learns how to read, they must employ two skills simultaneously: phonemic awareness, and knowledge of phonics. That is, they have to understand that certain sounds(phonemes) correspond to letters that form words, and be able to match sounds to letters, and letters to words. As with anything, some students have more natural aptitude than others. A tutor will create a lesson plan to address the specific difficulties a child is having this regard. To get connected with a reading tutor in Mesa, AZ, call Varsity Tutors.
Will your child be taking the AzMERIT exam? This is an excellent opportunity to make use of a tutor's advice and encouragement. The AzMERIT contains two reading sections featuring multiple choice/multi-select questions, evidence-based reading and response, hot text questions, and editing tasks. A tutor could take your child through samples tests and help them improve in problem areas so they'll be ready for test day.
