Personalized Reading Tutoring for kids, Ages 6-8
Helping Grades 1 to 3 Thrive with Expert One-on-One Reading Tutoring
Give your child the tools they need to build strong reading skills and confidence with our Young Readers Intensive program. This personalized tutoring program focuses on the critical early elementary grades, specifically grades 1 through 3, where foundational reading skills are developed.
We use a systematic, research-backed Orton Gillingham approach. Our tutors work one-on-one with your child to address their unique needs, ensuring they make steady progress and achieve real results. Our engaging lessons and interactive activities are tailored to keep young learners motivated, making reading not only easier but also fun for them.
What Your Child Will Learn
Our Young Readers Intensive program builds solid decoding and fluency skills by teaching the 44 sounds made by the 26 letters of the alphabet and how these sounds blend into words.
Level 1:
Mastering Letter Sounds and Basic Decoding
-
Learn short and long vowel sounds, including digraphs (two letters that make one sound, like “sh” and “ch”).
-
Decode and read simple short vowel words (CVC, like “cat” or “dog”) and long vowel words with silent “e” (CVCe, like “cake” or “bike”).
-
Develop confidence reading aloud with the support of a tutor and regular practice.
Level 2:
Advancing to Complex Sounds and Multi-Syllable Words
-
Understand hard and soft consonant sounds (like the “g” in “go” vs. “giraffe”).
-
Learn trigraphs (“tch” in “catch”) and how to decode two-syllable words (such as “cupcake” and “milkshake”).
-
Improve reading fluency and accuracy through structured practice and real-time feedback.
By the end of Levels 1 and 2, most students show significant improvement in sounding out both familiar and unfamiliar words, boosting their reading fluency and comprehension.
