Frequently Asked Questions
1. What’s the first step?
Schedule your child’s free diagnostic reading assessment using the link provided. This no‑obligation assessment offers valuable insight into your child as a reader, and results can be shared with teachers even if you choose not to continue with tutoring.
2. What happens during the evaluation?
The reading assessment is conducted via Zoom using DIBELS 8, Read Naturally Live, and the UFLI Intervention Placement Test. You’ll receive a detailed report with scores, strengths, gaps, and personalized recommendations.
3. Can we try tutoring before committing?
Yes. Many families begin with the New Family Welcome Offer, which includes four 45‑minute Zoom sessions. If your child does not make measurable progress, your payment will be fully reimbursed.
4. Why choose Literacy Link?
Check Google reviews, LinkedIn, Facebook, and our website success stories to see how families experience Literacy Link Tutoring.
With years of experience as a classroom teacher and reading interventionist, I help children build confidence and measurable progress in reading. Teaching has always been my joy, and supporting struggling readers is my passion.
5. What are your rates?
Rates begin at $170 per month. I will make minute recommendations in your child’s report based on their assessment results.
6. What’s included with my monthly plan?
Monthly plans include progress reports, Zoom recordings, and access to online platforms such as Read Naturally Live and Reading A‑Z for optional at‑home support. Families also receive priority scheduling and text support for quick questions. With your permission, I communicate with teachers to align on reading progress and, for students with IEPs or evaluations, provide updated data and help coordinate goals.
7. How will I know if my child is making progress?
Progress is reported regularly and shared with parents and teachers. Your child’s initial diagnostic reading assessment is updated every four months.
8. Will my child attend well to online tutoring?
The best way to know is to try. The New Family Welcome Offer lets you see how your child responds and whether we are a good fit for your family. This is a risk‑free, guaranteed way to find out.
9. Is in‑person tutoring available if I am local?
I offer in‑person tutoring for families in the Tri‑Cities area, but most choose virtual sessions because they’re simple and flexible. Online tutoring saves time, keeps the focus on learning, and lets parents listen in so they can better understand the strategies their child is using.
