We have three students registered for tutoring so far this summer. All three students have registered for online tutoring. We are offering both in-person and online tutoring this summer. We offer free tutoring for all ages.
We will be using my new book and tutoring curriculum program called: Why Can’t We Teach Children to Read: Oh, but Wait We Can, A Step-by-Step Plan for Teaching Your Child to Read.
We will provide free curriculum for any volunteers who would like to help tutor this summer. The curriculum uses the vowel clustering teaching method, and it is easy to use. So far students in previous years in the program have made excellent progress.
Vowel clustering works with all ages.
We are still making plans to reopen the reading clinic in the fall. We are searching for grants and funding. We would like to hire 10 university students to work as tutors for our Reading Orienteering Club program in the fall. If you know of organizations or grants that we might apply to for financial assistance, please let us know. For more information, contact: Elaine Clanton Harpine at 361-867-8040 or [email protected]
