I believe in regular, transparent communication with parents—you'll always know exactly how your child is progressing and the strategies we're using to help them succeed. What sets my tutoring approach apart is my commitment to meeting each student where they are while challenging them to reach their full potential. Let me help your child discover their academic strengths and build the skills they need for long-term success.

Instructed by a teacher, author & mother! In this ongoing class, learners will grow academically by reading and writing at their unique level.

How is the instruction of the class structured?

1.We will begin the instruction of class with a review of letter names and letter sounds by singing a song and/or the use of flashcards displayed on paper or on a powerpoint slide.

2. We will work on phonological awareness by listening to and breaking up the sounds of words we hear.

3. Students will then learn how to segment sounds and blend them together focusing on our sound of the day with word study words.

4. Students will write a dictated sentence on paper or a whiteboard with the help of the instructor using the short vowel sound. They will try to write the sentence on their own first. Then, the instructor will guide as needed. Discussion of basic sentence structure will take place.

5. Students will be given 2-3 sight words and/or vocabulary for the new short story of the day. Then, they will practice writing the words on a whiteboard, in sand or in rice as practice.

6. Finally, students will listen to and read a short story or short passage going over the sound of the day to reinforce skills and build fluency!
