Frequently Asked Questions
Certified Wired for Reading is a structured, evidence-based literacy program designed to help students develop strong foundational reading skills and comprehension strategies. The program focuses on phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension—the five critical components of reading instruction. For students in Queens working with a Certified Wired for Reading tutor, this approach means targeted instruction tailored to your specific reading level and learning needs, helping you build confidence and independence as a reader.
Certified Wired for Reading tutors follow a specific, research-backed curriculum and methodology that addresses the foundational components of reading in a structured sequence. Unlike general reading support, this certification means tutors have specialized training in diagnostic assessment and targeted intervention strategies. For students in Queens, this translates to more precise instruction—your tutor will identify exactly where reading challenges originate and apply evidence-based techniques to address them, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Your first session typically includes an assessment to understand your current reading level, identify specific strengths and challenges, and determine which components of reading (phonics, fluency, comprehension, etc.) need the most support. The tutor will discuss your reading goals and learning style to create a personalized plan. From there, personalized 1-on-1 instruction begins, with your tutor using Certified Wired for Reading strategies and materials tailored specifically to your needs.
Reading comprehension is built on a foundation of phonemic awareness, phonics, and fluency—areas where Certified Wired for Reading tutors specialize. Your tutor will use targeted strategies to help you understand what you're reading, including pre-reading preparation, active reading techniques, and post-reading reflection. They'll also help you develop vocabulary knowledge and teach you how to ask questions, make predictions, and connect ideas while reading—skills that deepen understanding and retention.
Certified Wired for Reading is most commonly used with elementary and early middle school students who are building foundational reading skills, though the program can be adapted for older students who need support with reading fundamentals. The curriculum is flexible and diagnostic-driven, meaning instruction is customized based on your current reading level rather than grade level.

Regular communication with parents and students helps ensure everyone understands progress and can celebrate gains in reading confidence and skill.
