Newport Beach Reading Tutoring FAQ
Does your child in elementary school feel embarrassed when reading in front of the class due to a their trouble reading those "big" multi-syllable words? Or do you just want someone to work with your first-grader to make sure they understand their phonics, which you know is a crucial step in learning to read? Call Varsity Tutors today to find reading tutors in Newport Beach, CA. Reading tutors work with children of all ages and could help them overcome any difficulties in reading that they face, even if you are not sure why they are having the trouble they are having in class.
The educational directors at Varsity Tutors could help you find Newport Beach tutors to strive to ensure your child doesn't fall behind in reading. While you may be tempted to just wait it out and see if they catch up to the class next semester or next year, it is always best to address their current problem now before they fall even further behind. Their teacher next year likely won't have time to spare to get your child caught up to the rest of the class when they only have a limited amount of time to get through the current year's lesson plans. With jam-packed classrooms and budget cuts in recent years in many school districts, even the most dedicated teacher who wants all of his or her students to thrive often just can't set aside time to help each and every student individually.
Varsity Tutors can assist you in finding an independent, professional reading tutor in Newport Beach, CA. How can a tutor help your child learn to read? First, no matter what grade your child is in, their tutor will assess how well they understood past reading skills taught that serve as the important building-blocks of knowledge to understanding the current lessons. For example, if your child is just reading slowly, you may think the key to improving their speed is simple practice. The truth is while practicing reading is important, your child could potentially increase their reading speed much more quickly when a tutor finds out the specific types of syllables or letter combinations they are having trouble decoding; their tutor can then re-teach them how to decode them efficiently, which will then naturally increase their reading speed. Their tutor can also make learning time fun by including educational games and puzzles in the lessons.
For assistance in helping your child understand their reading course in Newport Beach contact Varsity Tutors' educational directors today. Your child's tutor can meet with the two of you any time morning, afternoon, or evening. Your child's tutor can come to your house, meet you and your child at a library or park, or even connect with the two of you completely online using the face-to-face Varsity Tutors Live Learning Platform.
