Reading is Our Specialty!

The staff at One to One has extensive expertise in teaching reading to all types of learners, including those children with learning differences. We use multi-modality techniques to reach even the most struggling of readers.

We have many areas of focus for reading tutoring:
Sound-Symbol Association: Sound discrimination is the method of learning to read by correlating sounds with letters. Sound discrimination is when we distinguish between phonemes (or the smallest parts of sound in a language) in words. Emergent readers must have a solid sound-symbol association base to move further along in reading.
Blending: Blending is the combination of consonant letters with vowels. Emergent readers must know how to blend (sound-out) words using vowel sounds and consonant blends. If these skills are inconsistent, reading can become a more difficult process.
Syllabication: Breaking words apart and understanding their meanings can be a very effective way to improve reading skills.
Fluency: Fluency is the ability to read smoothly at age-appropriate speed. Students that read too slowly may experience difficulty keeping up in class.
Reading Comprehension: Strong comprehension is vital to gathering information from text, connecting to the written word, and fostering a love for reading. We use visualization techniques, along with comprehension strategies, to help students fully comprehend all different types of written material.

We address all these challenges in a prescriptive manner. We'll help your child get up to school standards in reading.
