[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He doesn't need phonics. That's for early reading. He is past that point. He might need some spelling instruction, but more likely you are not familiar with 3rd grade spelling ability. I would leave it to the teachers. If you really want a tutor, you want a writing/spelling tutor, not a phonics tutor. I'm not sure you can find someone willing to work with a child who is basically fine, though. Tutors typically focus on helping kids who are behind, and often don't know what to do with a kid who is developmentally appropriate, which he likely is.[/quote] Ok, Lucy Caulkins. [/quote]
