Why Critical Reading Matters
Critical reading involves more than just reading comprehension; it means reading for analysis, interpretation, and assessment. This skill is really useful for any individual in any form of setting, both academically and professionally. Being a proficient critical reader provides students with an ability to relate with the text at a more profound level, make links, and produce well-supported arguments.
For standardized tests, critical reading forms the backbone. In tests like the SAT and ACT, they are checked on how a student can read and understand a complex text which may not be in any language under given time limits. It tests not only if one can memorize facts, but also interpret ideas, acknowledge the tone of the author and recognize key arguments within the text.

Comprehension Skills: We enable students to achieve a deep understanding of the texts, whether it is the basic or the finer details that lie within. Our tutors teach them skills like summarizing, paraphrasing, and note-taking so that they gain full comprehension.
Analyzing Texts: Critical reading aims at a more profound interaction with the text. Our tutors help students identify why the author wrote the text, argue on the points, and understand the different subtleties of words, tone, and bias.
Vocabulary Building: It is through vocabulary that the rich meanings of challenging texts are understood. We include vocabulary exercises that expand the student’s word bank, making it easier for them to tackle difficult texts.
Test-Taking Strategies: Our tutors focus on test preparation. They help students master specific techniques for answering critical reading questions on exams such as the SAT and ACT. This includes recognizing patterns in questions, managing their time, and eliminating incorrect answer choices.
