Kids Up Reading Tutors will check your child's phonological and phonics skills up front, to see what skills they already have and which they still need to learn. How many sessions/week students do generally depends on the results of the screeners. Most families choose 3 or 4 sessions per week to help their student get caught up to grade level as quickly as possible.

If your child is only missing a handful of skills, doing sessions twice a week can work well. Over the summer, many families choose to do tutoring 5 times/week, to get their student reading well by the start of the new school year.

Yes! About half of Kids Up Reading Tutors' students don't have a dyslexia diagnosis. Many of them just didn't get as much good reading instruction as they needed, e.g. as a result of COVID.

All struggling readers and spellers need systematic, explicit instruction in phonological skills, phonics, morphology, fluency and spelling. Kids with dyslexia often need more of that good instruction, with more repetition.
