The reading instruction offered in the Kit and Dick Schmoker Reading Center for the Spring 2010 Session is designed to serve students (Grades K-6) who are reading 1-3 years below grade level, and whose primary difficulties in school result from reading problems.

* The tutors are UNL students who are practicing teachers or individuals training to be teachers.

* The services include one-on-one individualized reading instruction based on the needs of the student.

* Skills addressed may include early reading skills such as letter recognition, letter-sound relationships, decoding, and word analysis strategies. If a student has basic reading skills, instruction would focus on building fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension skills for both stories and informational text.

*Please see the Application Form (pdf - word) for Spring 2010.

*Tuition for summer sessions is $125 for the one-hour sessions and $175 for the two-hour sessions. Tuition for the fall semester is $180.
