Manual for Tutors and Teachers of Reading

283 pages, Paperback

Reading is a skill that is extremely important for psychological well-being. For children in school, reading skills can make the difference between success and failure, between confidence and demoralization, between joyousness and a sense of dread.

Manual for Tutors and Teachers of Reading is my summary of how to teach reading, gained from the research literature and from the experience of several research projects and many pleasant homeschooling hours. This book contains exercises, word lists, some tests, lots of ideas about how to keep morale up, some illustrated and unillustrated stories for beginning readers, some pictures for practicing left-right discriminations and "spatial awareness," exercises for "phonemic awareness," ideas about working on self-control skills while teaching reading, and tips for special situations such as telephone tutoring in reading.
