Robust Vocabulary

What is a robust vocabulary and how it is developed? Every student has an active vocabulary and passive vocabulary.  The transition to a robust vocabulary occurs when students more frequently and comfortably use passive vocabulary words in everyday speaking (i.e. passive vocabulary transitions to active vocabulary). By developing a more robust vocabulary an individuals reading and reading comprehension skills will improve.

We offer beginner, intermediate, and advanced vocabulary computer based programs for students in sixth grade through college. These sessions may be added to any regular tutoring session for a nominal fee. For more information click here.
