US Grade 2
This is a 1-on-1 tutoring class. I will be utilizing the Spectrum Reading and Spectrum Language Arts Grade 2 workbooks to introduce new stories. If you’d like to choose another grade level, please let me know. I teach this class in the 1st-5th grade levels. All the stories stand alone and are independent from each other. They cover various topics. I will be working with the students to answer questions after each short story. This is great practice to help your child write in complete sentences, practice penmanship, use correct capitalization, punctuation, grammar, and enrich their vocabulary! Students will increase their critical thinking skills and become better readers. Students will read sentences/paragraphs and we will answer questions together. Fiction and non-fiction passages are covered and they will learn to identify the main idea, focus on key ideas and details, and integrate knowledge and ideas from the stories to answer questions. They will also gain an understanding of parts of speech and sentences, grammar and usage, and capitalization/punctuation. This is great practice even for students struggling with reading. Other topics included in the workbooks are commas, apostrophes, quotation marks, subject-verb agreement, past tense verbs, contractions, homophones, synonyms, antonyms, comparative adjectives, learning to write an essay (plan, write, revise, proofread, final draft), and a lot more! Students should have knowledge of blending, and letter/word correspondence to help with reading. The students must have these books with them for this class so we can work together on the exercises. I love interacting with students one on one and see them gain confidence in their skills, ensure they feel welcome, understand the material at their own pace, and have fun while learning! Please message me on which day/time you'd like to book and if you'd like to book more than one class. Please take a look at the workbooks ahead of time so you can let me know which areas in reading comprehension and/or language arts your child needs more help in. I'm currently an elementary school substitute teacher in my township, and have a Bachelor's in Healthcare Management and Education. Please contact me and avoid the summer slide! I'd love to help improve your child's grades and standardized test scores next year. I'm looking forward to meeting you soon! Thank you!
Learning Goals
Students will improve their reading comprehension skills at the 2nd grade level. Writing skills will also be improved as they answer questions using correct punctuation, capitalization, grammar and of course writing in complete sentences.

Hello Parents and Amazing Students,
My name is Mrs. Boradia and I'm super excited to teach your child! I'm focused on connecting with him or her fulfilling their individual needs. I have 2 children, ages 14 and 11. I have volunteered in their classrooms for 5 years in elementary school. I have read children's storybooks to the class and helped the kids with arts and crafts and projects. I love it and I'm happiest with kids! I feel a sense of accomplishment when I see the light in their eyes and make them happy. I love to color, draw, read poetry, and even learn about the weather patterns! I would love to teach students these various topics, but best of all, I enjoy tutoring English. I love teaching elementary school topics and seeing children progress when they're very young. It provides a sense of accomplishment. As a child, I used to use my favorite reading books to trace their covers such as The Berenstain Bears. I started in elementary school as early as age 8, and still enjoy drawing very much. For the past year, I have been teaching Phonics and Grammar online and have tutored Language Arts, Reading Comprehension, Writing, Vocabulary, and Spelling. I would love to continue teaching it on Outschool. I am also a substitute teacher at the middle school and elementary schools in my town. I loved learning about America's states and capitals. At a young age, I also have written poetry just for fun. I would love to show your children their hidden talents through writing and expressing their thoughts. Great teachers are patient, friendly, challenging, and make sure the kids are having fun! I love working with kids and watching them grow as students! As a parent, I strive to do what is best for my children. I hope to do the same for yours and look forward to working with you! Hope to see you in class soon!
