About Reading Homeroom

Tutors work one-on-one with a K-5 student in a Dallas ISD elementary school, guiding them through the basics of phonics, writing, and reading comprehension with a side of social-emotional learning. Many of these students are refugee and immigrant English Language Learners and Emergent Bilinguals eager to gain confidence and thrive in their environment.
