Why Maryland Families Choose Kids Up

Families across Maryland—from Bethesda to Potomac & beyond—choose Kids Up Reading Tutors for evidence-based reading and spelling tutoring. 

  • If you're looking for proven, evidence-based instruction to close phonics, fluency, spelling and comprehension gaps

  • If your child is a confident reader and writer, ready for the next challenge

No homework.

Most students graduate from our program in 4-9 months.

"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 (!)."โ€‹
