Approaches to SAT Reading Comprehension

Peak teachers employ various approaches to enhance your child's SAT Reading comprehension skills. Our teachers (we call ourselves teachers because we are all teachers first unlike most tutors and tutoring organizations) are dedicated to helping your child succeed in this section of the exam.

During our sessions, our teachers (we call ourselves teachers because we are all teachers first unlike most tutors and tutoring organizations) will encourage active reading. We will guide your child to underline or highlight important details, make notes, and summarize paragraphs or sections. By engaging with the passages in this manner, your child will internalize the information and remember key points.

Our teachers (we call ourselves teachers because we are all teachers first unlike most tutors and tutoring organizations) will emphasize the importance of developing a systematic approach to answering questions. We will instruct your child to carefully read each question, identify its type, and skim the passage for keywords or relevant information. By finding specific evidence that supports the correct answer choice, your child will avoid making assumptions or relying on external knowledge.

Vocabulary is a crucial component of comprehension. We will help your child enhance their vocabulary skills by recommending wide reading and encouraging the use of context clues to determine the meaning of unfamiliar words. We will also practice identifying word relationships and understanding their contribution to the passage's overall meaning.

Through these strategies employed at Peak Learning Solutions, your child will improve their SAT Reading comprehension skills, ultimately leading to better performance on the exam.
