Class Experience
US Grade 2 - 6
In this one day course, students will work one on one with a certified reading specialist. Classes will meet once for 55 minutes. Please email to set up a time. I will reach out before the first class to gain knowledge of your child's reading needs. Each course will be individualized based on student need. Diagnostic assessments may be used to gain further knowledge in reading needs. Areas that may be covered include phonological awareness, phonics, sight words, fluency, vocabulary and/or comprehension. We will use appropriate text and activities to follow a specific format. Class format is as follows: 1. Warm up activity 2. Phonological Awareness Activity (adding, deleting, blending, segmenting words) 3. Phonics (decoding words) 4. Fluency Practice (Reading words, sentences or text) 5. Vocabulary 6. Comprehension I believe all students need a cheerleader in their corner when building confidence in reading. We will use appropriately leveled text and materials to practice reading in a fun way.
Learning Goals
Students will build confidence to be successful readers and close gaps in reading.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from Shippensburg University
Hi! My name is Holly Hellam. I am a certified reading specialist. I have been teaching for 24 years. I have taught 2nd grade and 3rd grade before focusing on reading for the last 18 years. I received my bachelor's and master's degrees from Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania. I have experience teaching online courses through Cyber School and VIPKID. I also offer individualized tutoring to students in reading.
I am a mother of three boys and I enjoy attending their sporting events. I love to travel, especially to the beach! Our family takes a fishing trip each summer to Canada. I enjoy curling up with a good book and cooking.
I currently teach fourth & fifth grade students who are reading below grade level. I believe learning should be fun! I am proficient in administering diagnostic assessments to pinpoint areas of individual need. I am aware of strategies to address student needs in phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension. I am up to date on current best practices in reading, including the science of reading. I believe all students should be given a safe and supportive environment to learn and grow as readers. I look forward to seeing you in class!Reviews
