US Grade Preschool - Pre-Kindergarten
We will be focusing on letter recognition and sounds. We will play games, practice words beginning with each letter, and simple tricks for remembering letter names. We will practice letters by coloring, building, playdoh, sticks, shave cream. Because this is one on one tutoring, I can make accommodations and match the pace of your student. They do not need any prior knowledge before this class. I love to sing, use rhyme, and kinesthetic activities to help trigger all parts of the brain. This approach will help letter names stick with your child. They will also simultaneously learn the sound each letter makes. This makes the transition to reading simple words incredibly smooth.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their alphabet recognition. They will quickly learn letter names and sounds.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Teacher Kender! I obtain the following: BA in theatre, early childhood certification, elementary certification grades 1-6, and a master's degree in elementary reading. The most fun I have while teaching is when I can combine the two. I love digging into books and exploring the characters. I always read with crazy expression and sound effects. My read alouds are exciting and fun! I can teach your child to read, and I can teach them how to perform well in an audition. My available classes list will vary because of my love of the theatre and my passion for lower elementary. I was a classroom teacher for six years. All six of those years were spent teaching first grade. I taught ESL online for 5 years, and I have been teaching a variety of classes on Outschool since the summer of 2020. It is my philosophy that more is caught than taught. So, being a good example for your children is key. Surrounding them with others who instill respect, knowledge, and common sense is vital. Finding a teacher who can bring information to them in an exciting and fun way so that it sticks for a lifetime... that is priceless. Let's do this! See you in the classroom.
***NOTE: I will always teach. If the class has one student, I will still teach!***
