14 Phonics lessons

We are delighted to review our tutor Ms. Julieta R. After 4 tutors and feelings of disappointment we finally found her among all the tutors that contacted us. We needed someone with the patience, knowledge and care to teach a 5 years old boy, phonics and how to read. We've only have had her for a three weeks, although we can already see the transformation in our son's interest for reading.

38 Phonics lessons

Tiffany has been an extremely dedicated and thorough tutor. She makes sure that she covers every aspect of learning and uses different ways of teaching to make it more enjoyable for our daughter who is homeschooling. She has been tutoring our daughter in reading, phonics, and vocabulary. The several months that my daughter has seen her she has progressed so well and both of us are very happy with the results.
Robert R.

298 Phonics lessons

Our daughter was having a hard time grasping the school taught phonics based reading program. We decided to go the tutoring route outside of the school program. We found wyzant on the internet and searched thru a bunch of profiles. Most tutors say they can tutor in reading but we were looking for a tutor that had experience in tutoring students with learning disabilities. We found barb L. and contacted her about our daughter.
