Keep in mind that the expectation for essay format will change in the higher grade levels. For now, this should work for 3rd to 8th grade students.

Do you have an active child who gets bored easily? If you’re worried that this active child of yours won’t have the chance to improve his/her reading skills, this post is for you.

Gone are the days of sitting still for 8 hours and staring at a dirty, dusty chalkboard. If your child is not using his/her hands, feet, or voice to learn, his/her teacher may be doing him/her a huge disservice. Check out this tip to find out why.

What is Fluency?

Many parents ask me, “What is fluency, and why is it important?” Reading fluency is a HUGE key to developing stellar reading comprehension skills. Without good reading fluency, your child will simply spend most of their time thinking about the words themselves instead of what he/she is reading. This video will show you what exactly fluency is and how to make sure your child has it.

The children that I work with see an increase their reading grade level within 12 weeks. If your child is a struggling reader and would benefit from meeting with an online reading tutor, let me know by sending a note. I’ll get back to you within 5 business days.
