Q: Our daughter needs expert help with reading. She doesn't like to read and has difficulty with reading comprehension. Her English grades are terrible and we haven't had any luck working with her at home. We are looking for an experienced private reading tutor. Can a tutor from the Hoffman Educational Group help our daughter become a proficient reader?
A:
For many students today, reading for pleasure has taken a back-seat to electronic forms of entertainment, such as cellphones, MP3 players and computer games. As a result, grades suffer because children aren't getting the extra practice from 'reading for fun' that was common a short time ago. When a student has trouble with reading comprehension, that difficulty can make school a nightmare, because reading is the main component of most subjects and understanding and retention are crucial for academic success.
The reading tutors at Hoffman Educational Group are enthusiastic, experienced educators skilled in helping students overcome reading, comprehension and retention challenges. At Hoffman, we believe that every student can learn, and our systematic three-fold approach – Identify, Instruct, Inspire – is designed to educate and support each student positively, effectively and successfully.
Whether your child is struggling in school with reading comprehension, literature, or vocabulary, needs help preparing for the SAT test, or is affected by a learning disability like dyslexia, a Hoffman in-home reading tutor will work with your family to develop a strategic, specialized plan to identify the learning challenges, master and retain the material, and overcome the barriers to success.
