Learning Center teaches English enrichment classes for grades
1-8. The classes introduce and reinforce basic skills of reading
comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, and writing. At the younger
grades, children start with phonics and spelling before moving
on to basic reading. As they advance and master more complex
writing and reading, the focus shifts to finer points of style
and deeper understanding of theme. Additionally, students are
prepped for important state standardized exams and develop the
skills needed to apply to and succeed in competitive high schools.
We encourage students to read on their own, as frequent reading
is the best way to increase vocabulary and reading comprehension.
The California Reading List, available at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/sr/readinglist.asp,
will provide a selection of titles appropriate for your childĄ¯s
age and reading level.
