How can a Phonics tutor help you?
What is phonics? Basically, it's the relationship between sounds and letters. Reading instruction that's based on phonics is one of the most effective methods for teaching young kids how to read and spell words. This is done by introducing the students to a series of rules related to spelling. Then, they are taught how to apply phonetics to decode words based on how they're spelled. Phonetics is how a combination of letters sound when spoken out loud.
In other words, phonics breaks down the written language so that it's in the simplest set of components possible. Without phonics, many students will never learn to read properly. An enthusiastic phonics tutor in San Marcos connected with you by Varsity Tutors could help make your educational process more efficient, more enjoyable, and less stressful.

"The student's been doing great on the his homework and the review. Some things I've noticed: he often forgets the rules with multiplying/dividing with negatives, or forgets to include the negative in his answer. He could use some intensive practice with negative numbers, which is something we'll work on next session. He also struggles a bit with fractions, but most kids do. We'll do more practice with this as well.
Overall, I'm very pleased with his progress!"

"The student and I continued working on CVC syllables with short "a" sounds and reviewed the consonants L,R,T,D and M. We practiced reading and spelling the words. We also practiced reading comprehension using a picture book, which we read together."
