Strategic Reading

Would you like your student to become a happier, more capable reader for college and life? We would! In our assessment for academic or test prep tutoring, we sometimes find that a student can benefit from strategic reading tutoring to boost their grades or jump-start their SAT/ACT score growth:

  • Some students struggle with the fundamental skills of reading: finding details, understanding advanced vocabulary, and determining main idea.
  • Some capable readers are challenged by higher-order reading skills: interpretation, inference, and conclusions.
  • We also find some capable readers struggle with particular texts. For example, a reader who devours novels may struggle with scientific articles. The opposite can be true too!

For all these challenges, a 10-12-week strategic reading program can be ideal. In our Strategic Reading curriculum, partnered with writing and math as appropriate, we will teach your student the critical reading and thinking skills they need for success in college. The skills we teach in Strategic Reading are directly applicable to the SAT/ACT, and students tell us it doesn’t feel like work! 🙂
