Burbank Phonics Tutoring FAQ
Phonics is a subject every child encounters in school. It is an important one, as it involves the procedure of identifying how phonemes, or sounds, relate to letters and spoken language. Falling behind now may leave your youngster behind in being prepared for every other subject. Varsity Tutors can find you a skilled phonics tutor in Burbank, CA, who can try to offer your student individualized, one-on-one attention. An exclusive instructor can focus on just your son or daughter's needs, rather than those of an entire class. This allows the tutor to concentrate on your child's specific weaknesses and spend the time more efficiently.
To get your student caught up, or to remain on track, call Varsity Tutors today to get connected with a phonics tutor in Burbank. The Common Core Standards and the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress are very demanding in terms of a child's ability to read and comprehend what they read. By knowing sound-spelling relationships, students can decode words as they move along. The means of sounding words out becomes more efficient the more practice your child gets. A tutor is able to work at their level, structuring personalized lessons according to their needs.
A tutor can meet at the best place and time, so your child's busy schedule will not have to impede their phonics learning. A Burbank phonics tutor can travel to your house, or meet in your child's school or a local library. If there's availability during the school day, the instructor can work with your child then, or they can meet in the evening. Weekend lessons are possible, too. If your child can't meet in person, face-to-face online tutoring can be done using a live learning platform.
Individualized help can really improve your child's confidence as well. The tutor can instill an enthusiasm for learning that will apply to all of their subjects. The power of the one-on-one approach could help your child build on their strengths and eliminate their weaknesses to build a solid understanding of phonics, speech, and reading. If you are seeking phonics tutors near Burbank, CA, for your child, Varsity Tutors could help them connect with a tutor who could steer them on the path to success in phonics and reading. Give us a call today and get your child started building towards an academic future that is everything you want it to be for them.
