One on One Hour Long Reading Tutoring with a Licensed Reading Teacher

In this class, your child will receive one on one tailored reading tutoring depending on their specific needs. For the first one on one tutoring class, we will get to know one another and I will assess their learning and understanding of literacy skills. We will keep in contact about your child's specific needs. You know your child best! I want to work as partners to help your child deepen their reading abilities. If you would like for us to work on specific weekly homework, that can also be arranged! 

Depending on your child's needs, topics taught during our tutoring session will be reviewing sight words and phonics skills through learning games and activities. We will work on reading fluency and reading comprehension based on grade level standards. If your child needs to practice phonics skills, we will work on reading passages that highlight those skills. If they need to work on comprehending a text, we will work on main idea and key details, author's purpose, understanding a character's actions, thoughts and feelings etc. Fluency and reading comprehension go hand in hand in developing a strong reader! As I assess your child I will be listening for word recognition, decoding skills and understanding of the text. 

An example of the topics taught in this one on one tutoring class would be: Begin by reviewing sight words and phonics patterns. Practice reading a passage together and work on decoding words. Review together the words your child needs extra practice with. I will then ask some comprehension questions and your child will answer aloud or write some of the answers down. 

In each tutoring session, I will model the lesson based off of how your child learns best. I try to teach to a variety of learning styles to keep students engaged and excited about learning. I will use slides, discussion questions, printable reading passages, flashcards and more to practice reading skills. Any materials the student will need access to will be uploaded prior to the session and will be based off of what they need to work on. I love making learning fun and engaging! I want your child to develop a love for reading and be excited and confident in their reading abilities!
