English Tutoring for Reading Comprehension

There are many reasons why a child may have trouble with reading comprehension. In our experience, one of the most common is also one of the simplest: lack of practice. Since reading every day is absolutely critical for students who wish to improve their reading comprehension skills, we select reading material that even reluctant readers can be enthusiastic about. Since practice alone isn’t enough, especially once a child has begun to struggle and fall behind, we also use guided discussions, shared reading, and other techniques to teach specific reading strategies and support students as they read material that is just a little bit harder than what they can manage on their own.

When students struggle with reading comprehension, it can be emotionally difficult for both students and parents. Our English tutors recognize this and combine high standards and expectations with patience and compassion.
