ELA Program for Kids: Reading & Writing, Grades 1–9
Live 1:1 reading and writing tutoring that follows what your child learns at school — from phonics to text analysis.
The TomoRise ELA Path: 3 Levels
Your child moves up when they've mastered each level — not just when the calendar says so.
Level 1 · Phonics & Fluency
Letter sounds, blending, sight words, reading smoothly. Lessons use short on-screen activities and lots of reading aloud with the tutor.
Moves up when: your child sounds out new words instead of guessing.
Level 2 · Vocabulary & Comprehension
Word meaning from context, main idea and details, writing paragraphs.
Moves up when: your child answers questions with evidence from the text.
Level 3 · Analysis & Writing
Text evidence, author's point of view, argument writing.
Moves up when: your child builds an argument from a text, not just a summary.

How We Teach ELA
Every lesson follows the Common Core State Standards for ELA at your child's grade.
Because every class is 1:1, the tutor doesn't move on until your child has really got it.
Your child writes in every lesson: sentences in Grade 1, paragraphs and essays as they grow.
Every ELA tutor is fluent in English and teaches live, 1-on-1. See how a TomoRise tutor teaches in the free demo lesson.
