Frequently Asked Questions About Our Tutoring Services

How does reading tutoring in Kanata work with Tutor Doctor?

We start with a free consultation to learn about your childs reading goals, school expectations, and learning style. Then we match your child with a reading tutor who is a strong fit and create a personalized plan focused on their needs. Tutoring takes place one to one, in your home or online, and you receive session reports after every visit so you can see progress and next steps.

Do you align reading tutoring with the Ontario curriculum and local Kanata schools?

Yes. Our reading support follows Ontario Language curriculum expectations and stays aligned with class assignments and teacher feedback. We coordinate with families and, when helpful, with teachers, to reinforce what is being taught at school and to support IEP goals or accommodations.

What reading skills do you focus on during tutoring?

We build the full set of literacy skills: phonemic awareness, phonics and decoding, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension strategies like main idea, inference, and summarizing. For older students, we add note taking, text analysis, and written responses to reading. We also help students prepare for key Ontario assessments such as EQAO and the OSSLT.

Can you help a child who is reading below grade level or who has a learning difference?

Yes. Many families come to us when a child is reading below grade level, such as a second grader reading at a kindergarten level. Our tutors adjust pace and methods for students with dyslexia, ADHD, anxiety, or other learning needs, and we work with IEPs or school recommendations to provide consistent support.

What ages do you support for reading tutoring in Kanata?

We support readers of all ages. Our Kanata team specializes in elementary and middle school students, and we also help high school students strengthen literacy skills and prepare for the OSSLT. Adult literacy support is available as well.

How do you track and report my childs reading progress?

We begin with a baseline reading check to identify strengths and gaps, then set clear goals. After every session, you receive a written update with what was covered, how your child did, and what is next. We review progress with families regularly and adjust the plan as skills grow.

Is reading tutoring available in-home and online in Kanata and nearby areas?

Yes. We offer in-home and online reading tutoring in Kanata, Stittsville, Barrhaven, Nepean, Ottawa West, and nearby communities. Online sessions can be recorded for review, and scheduling is flexible with after school, evening, and weekend options.

How do you match my child with the right reading tutor in Kanata?

We look at your childs goals, learning style, personality, and interests, then select a tutor with the right expertise and approach. A good relationship matters, so our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust the match or plan if needed to ensure the right fit.

How soon will we see improvement in reading?

It depends on your childs starting point, goals, session frequency, and practice between sessions. Many families notice early wins such as smoother oral reading, better word recognition, or stronger comprehension answers within the first few weeks. We measure progress against the baseline and share updates after each session so you can see growth over time.

How do I know if my child needs a reading tutor?

Common signs include avoiding reading, guessing at words, slow or choppy reading, weak comprehension, or frustration with homework. If a teacher suggests extra support or your child is below grade level, targeted reading tutoring can help. National data also shows many students need support, with only thirty-six percent of fourth-graders in the United States reaching proficiency.

What makes Tutor Doctor Kanatas reading tutoring different?

We deliver one to one, personalized tutoring that fits your child and your schedule. You get a local team that understands Kanata schools, clear communication through session reports, and a focus on confidence and study habits through our X-Skills approach. Families choose us for our careful tutor matching, flexible in-home or online sessions, and a partnership that keeps you involved every step of the way.

How do we get started with reading tutoring in Kanata?

Book a free consultation. We will learn about your childs needs, recommend a personalized plan, and match you with a reading tutor in Kanata who is a strong fit. From there, tutoring begins at your home or online, and you will receive regular progress updates.
