Mount Vernon Reading Tutoring FAQ
Oftentimes, students begin learning to read in the first grade. By the time students are in the third or fourth grade, they are expected to be able to read a passage of text, comprehend it, and answer questions about it. Some students find reading to be a difficult subject to understand. Does your child have difficulty connecting letters to the correct sound, or does he or she frequently guess at unknown words rather than sounding them out? If your answer is yes, private tutoring may prove to be the perfect solution. A reading tutor in Mount Vernon, NY, can offer your child a more individualized, engaging, and structured learning experience. Private tutoring sessions are free of distractions, potentially making it easier to focus.
