Are your reading tutors based in Charlotte?

No. TaleemSquare tutors teach online, so Charlotte families get one-to-one reading lessons without travelling to a center. Lessons are scheduled in Eastern Time and follow the North Carolina curriculum your child uses at school.

Do you follow the North Carolina English curriculum?

Yes. Tutors align lessons with the North Carolina Standard Course of Study: English Language Arts and with your child's own school work. Share homework, worksheets or the topic list and the tutor will match it.

Can you help my child prepare for End-of-Grade reading tests?

Yes. Local tests include: End-of-Grade reading tests in Grades 3-8 and the English II End-of-Course test. Tutors build the underlying reading skills first, then practise questions in the right format as the test approaches.
