For teaching reading comprehension, my primary approach is to ensure students have a steady grasp on what is expected of them from the assignment.

I read the pieces alongside them to clarify any problematic areas and to help smooth any rough/confusing portions. I coach students through themes, symbolisms, metaphors, and other literary devices to dig into the core of the assigned readings and deepen textual comprehension.

If the student does not have a particular piece assigned, I will provide a few short stories or articles, and then go through the pieces step-by-step. (The essays, stories, and/or articles selected should, hopefully, be at least entertaining to the reader, as opposed to dry academic bits.)
I will go through the highlights of the work, then gradually encourage the student to identify its core elements.
This is an exercise that allows students to begin with easy identifications ("What happened in the story?'), then move to more in-depth analyses ("What is the writer trying to say about the state of the world?"; "What might this character represent?"; "What grand theme ties the story together?")
This type of practice can be taken as slowly as necessary, depending on the student's comfort level with the material: I'm not going to start flinging hard questions at you out of nowhere! :-)

I am passionate about aiding students with understanding a work, regardless of how insurmountable the writing may seem upon first reading.

Whether dealing with a particular assignment(s) or seeking help comprehending and delving into literature as a whole, I am ready to help you grasp it.
