Reading Tutor for
Maryland Families
Our 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 Maryland 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 Maryland 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.

"My 7-year-old daughter is mildly dyslexic, and when she left first grade she wasn't able to read for more than 10 agonizing minutes before giving up, exhausted and upset. She started with Kids Up the summer between first and second, and it turns out she's an avid leisure reader — she just needed her ability to be unlocked. Halfway through second grade, she's reading fluently for a couple hours a day (!)."
