Reading fluency—being able to read with speed, accuracy, and proper expression—is a critical component of literacy. Students who lack fluency often struggle with comprehension because their cognitive resources are consumed by decoding words rather than understanding the text. Fluency coaching focuses on repetitive practice with high-frequency words, targeted feedback, and guided reading exercises. Regular assessments are vital in this process, as they help educators identify areas of improvement and adjust instruction accordingly. When fluency is prioritized, students not only read faster but also develop stronger comprehension skills, laying the groundwork for academic success across all subjects.
