Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
In this course, we will review and explore various comprehension skills and strategies. The class will meet twice a week and cover eight skills. The class will be structured with a 5 minute critical thinking warmup, 5 minute direct instruction of skill, 15 minute book/pixar video with questioning, and 5 minute wrap-up. I will teach using books, video, and hands-on activities. I will engage learners with discussion and open ended questioning. The learners will interact with each other via discussion. The teacher will cater the course to meet the learner's needs as well as choose appropriate videos/text for those enrolled. Feedback will be provided to parents about the learners progress. There is no prior experience needed for learners.

Teacher expertise and credentials
North Carolina Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello, I am an Birth though 6th grade certified teacher in NC. I have also, been an administrator at the high school level. I have worked in education for nearly 15 years. I will teach a variety of courses around reading/comprehension, higher order thinking skills, social-emotional learning, and race, justice, and equity, along with leadership skill development. I believe every student can learn and can be successful. I believe in teaching the whole student so focus is on academics, social-emotional learning, and how to be the best version of themselves. I have a cat name Simba and a puppy named Harley Quinn. They keep me on my toes and enjoy appearing in videos every now and then to say Hi!
