Top 5 Phonics tutors

My 9 year old son started with Barbara over the summer to help him with his phonics. We were looking for someone who was certified in the Orton-Gillingham program and was happy to find Barbara. While he resisted the idea, he quickly took to her after just a few minutes allowing me to feel comfortable leaving him to learn from her right away.

We have been working with Brenda to teach my daughter phonics using Wyzant online tool. We are very impressed by three things from Brenda: 1) She is an expert in phonics. She knows how kids learn and she teaches my daughter very efficiently. When I teach my daughter myself, she didn't like to learn but with Brenda she looks forward to the lecture every time. 2) My daughter is five, therefore an online session can be challenging.

She provides him proper feedback on improvement and how to think out of the box. She is also very knowledgeable in Phonics and in the beginning of every class works with my son to improve his phonics. Overall so far I am very happy to see the progress Ms Catherine has helped my son make in English language and I plan to continue in the long term. Definitely recommend her as a subject matter expert in this area.
