Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 4
These sessions can be customized based on the needs of your learner.  A "pre-tutoring assessment" can take place, you can send me the goals they need to work on or I can start assessing in our first session to help determine the best goals to work on.  The structure of the class will fluctuate slightly based on the topics we need but in general, I am a casual, discussion-based teacher.  I give examples, support as needed, and love to play games. I do not lecture.  I also love to incorporate high-interest areas and personal learning styles.  It is best if the student takes the class in a quiet environment so they can remain unmuted for full participation.  

Weekly tutoring sessions can also include checking homework and/or creating customized lessons for additional instruction and practice to go with what they are working on with their school or homeschool curriculum.  Sessions can be for math, reading, writing, spelling, vocabulary, or multiple subjects.  Some possible examples are completing book studies, or full curriculum options for one or multiple subjects.  The age range is set as 5-10 because Outschool only allows a 5-year age range.  If you have a child outside of these ages that needs tutoring please contact me to let me know what your child needs to work on and confirm that they can be signed up for these sessions, I have experience with preschool-age children all the way up to adults depending on their needs.  

Days/times can be custom scheduled and multiple sessions per week can be arranged to fit your individual needs.  Also, if your child has friends/classmates that want to do small group sessions (on the same goals), I can create group lessons or "study halls" to support their needs.  

The most important thing here is that we work together to create a nurturing and supportive learning environment for your learner.  Whether they are behind in their skills, thrive on 1:1 attention, need consistency, confidence building, or a positive online experience ... I am here to help!  Please message me today and we can start working on a plan that is sure to fit your needs.
Learning Goals
Learning goals will be completely customized for each student.  If you would like to know my recommended learning goals before starting the ongoing sessions please book a one time "pre-tutoring assessment".

Supply List
Specific supplies may be recommended depending on the goals of the session.  A student should always have something to write with, this can be a whiteboard/marker or pencil.  If handwriting is of concern it will be important to have lined paper, I can provide a printable appropriate for the student if needed.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Michigan Teaching Certificate in Special Education
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Grand Valley State University
I have 20 years of experience as a tutor, 6 years of experience as a classroom special education teacher & 7 years of experience as a homeschool mom.  At the time of my graduation in 2009, I received a teaching certificate for elementary education & K-12 special education endorsed in cognitive & emotional impairments.  I was deemed highly qualified to teach all content areas.  The thing I love most about teaching & tutoring is working with a student who is having a hard time, they're starting to feel discouraged and not like school .... but as soon as they start to understand those hard things, they feel successful again, and their smile is priceless!
