Is your child or teen’s struggle to read affecting their self-confidence?

Our private reading tutors can get your student reading fluently and caught up to their peers while instilling a love of reading.

 

Rather than just practice reading where a student guesses at words based on pictures or context clues, we follow the Science of Reading and use systematic, explicit instruction in phonological skills, phonics and fluency to help your child learn the foundational skills all children need in order to be fluent readers, good spellers and confident students.


Our Reading Program is Designed with Busy La Jolla Families in Mind

If your child is noticeably behind their peers in reading, you want them caught up as quickly as possible. We get that. 

 

Rather than just making progress, we want your student to reach grade level and “graduate” quickly, but that requires a reading tutor to work intensely with your child.

 

For a lot of students, that means 3-4 or even 5 sessions per week for several months.

 

That’s tricky for many La Jolla families.

We’ve learned that most families have really busy schedules and would find it impossible to come in person several times a week. That’s why we developed our online reading program and work with students over Zoom.

"Over the summer, I noticed that my daughter (who was going into the 6th grade) was struggling reading fluently and pronouncing certain words that should come easily to someone her age.  I searched for reading tutors and found Kids Up Reading Coaches.  Daniela and Caitlin worked with her for over 3 months and they transformed her into a strong, confident reader.  Her spelling has improved and I can see that she truly enjoys reading now.  The team is amazing and I am truly grateful that we found them!"
