Westchester Reading Tutoring FAQ
Have you noticed your child struggling with their reading? Perhaps very simple stories were easy for them to grasp, but you have found they are experiencing difficulty as they move on to more advanced topics, such as antonyms and synonyms. Or maybe remedial work is proving difficult with their learning abilities, as they struggle with compound words or have difficulty expressing main ideas in work. Your child can get the help they deserve to get ahead in their class. Varsity Tutors can find your child a reading tutor in Westchester, NY, who can break down the basic concepts of reading to make sure your child understands the big picture.
Your child's tutor will work with them in a one-on-one setting, potentially ensuring they have everything they need to feel comfortable and try to succeed in reading. If you feel your child is having difficulty, the tutor can break down topics like figurative language or settings, and go over these with your child, one by one. Your child's tutor can work only on what you feel is important. For example, if you feel your child has a strong grasp of vocabulary, the tutor can bypass working on that and just focus on whatever topic is giving your child problems. If you would only like the tutor to give your child an extra boost in reading, they can do that by suggesting books and introducing concepts that your child would learn at the next grade level. A private reading tutor in Westchester can work with your child to try to get them back on track in their class. Since reading is a subject that is covered on the Regents test, it makes sense to try to help your child get the head start they need to strive to ensure they fully comprehend reading.
Varsity Tutors will hand-pick a reading tutor in Westchester, NY, who can work with your child's individual learning style, abilities, and personality. Your child's tutor can be available as often as you would like, working with your child for the rest of their class, or simply just a couple of weeks. It is truly up to you. Your child's tutor can come out to your home, work with your child in a public place such as the library, or even set up tutoring sessions online. Thanks to our face-to-face online learning platform, your child can have live interactive sessions with their tutor no matter where they are, even if they are sick in bed or out of town.
