Reading tutoring in Denver: questions

Are your reading tutors based in Denver?

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

Do you follow the Colorado English curriculum?

Yes. Tutors align lessons with the Colorado Academic Standards in Reading, Writing and Communicating 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 CMAS ELA tests?

Yes. Local tests include: CMAS ELA tests in Grades 3-8; PSAT in Grades 9-10 and SAT in Grade 11. Tutors build the underlying reading skills first, then practise questions in the right format as the test approaches.

What times are lessons available in Denver?

Lessons are scheduled in Mountain Time, usually after school on weekdays or at weekends. Your child keeps the same tutor and weekly slots, which you agree after the free assessment.

Do you work with Denver schools?
