[quote=Anonymous]I would contact colleges in your area with a reading center that trains reading specialists and does evaluations on youngsters. See if there in someone on staff who could evaluate your teen. Or folks they could refer you to. U of Maryland at College Park has such a center and I think other schools such as GWU and Marymount in Arlington may be options. Also, be clear to see if it is reading from books or from the computer which is bothering you child. It may also be the quantity of reading and the kinds of related, possibly higher level comprehension skills such as analysis, synthesis etc that may need to be learned and practiced with a tutor.[/quote]
