Root Reading Tutors is designed for students reading below a third grade reading level.

Arielle tutors most students. If Arielle is fully booked at the time your child enrolls, you can trust that another competent, compassionate teacher will tutor your child. All tutors are current or former state-certified teachers with extensive experience in teaching reading.

All lessons are taught online using Zoom. You will receive your unique Zoom link during enrollment. Your child will need a stable internet connection and a computer, laptop, or tablet. Chromebooks and cell phones do not have the necessary capabilities for tutoring.

Struggling readers require frequent lessons and practice to improve their reading levels. We meet 2 or 3 times each week. Each lesson is 30 minutes.

Each session is $25, billed monthly or biweekly.

Great question! Every child learns at a different pace, so the results and length of commitment will be different for everyone. There is a progress check every 6 weeks. Unlike many other tutoring services, we don't lock you into a long-term contract. We’re happy to help your child for as long or as little as needed.

Absolutely! Parents of children who receive tutoring report seeing an increase in confidence, academic performance, and a more positive attitude towards learning. When your child works with an expert reading tutor, you'll save time and have peace of mind knowing that they will be getting the help they need to read on grade level.

Not directly. Our tutoring goes deeper than homework help and is more like intervention. We focus on finding and filling your child's foundational reading gaps. We don’t focus on keeping your child afloat with school assignments. However, as your child becomes stronger in foundational reading skills, homework time will become a breeze.
