Re: Help with grammar and reading comprehension
My son is 13 and also very smart when it comes to doing what he enjoys doing, video games, working on computers, drawing, etc. But when it comes down to school, reading and comprehension he's bored, not interested and thus poor grades. Our kids just get lazy and it's up to us as parents to get them motivated. I enrolled my son in Sylvan learing ctr @ El Cerrito and finally seems to enjoy language arts and math, he sits with a small group of kids that have the same problem (2-3) @ the table. They get achievement awards and they make it fun to learn. I don't know what your willing to pay but Sylvan will work with you and work out a payment plan. Good luck.

Let me say I've never in my life experienced such dedicated professional teachers. Their accomplishments with this child were amazing. They have individual modules for specific needs. You can tour the facilities and see for yourself. What an incredible advantage in life it was for my kid to go there. Good Luck to you.
