English Learning Club Level 2 ALL YEAR (2 days a week) Come make friends who are also learning English! This twice weekly 40 minute small group club is the perfect opportunity to gain confidence in speaking, reading, and writing in English! We have a loose structure to the class: -Greeting -warm up -introduce new material -play games / activites to practice new material -Say goodbye Students are also able to bring up topics they want to talk about, things that interest them, or something they are excited to share! Students will have lots of opportunity to talk about the topics they like, while practicing common phrases, colors, shapes, animals, verbs, grammar, and more! The class is set up to encourage conversation among eachother as we would talk with our friends and family the real-world rather than a "classroom style" setting where students interact only with the teacher. Students are encouraged to jump in and speak about what interests them! We practice polite listening and conversational skills. This class is for students who can already say their name, age, and something they like (with limited support). Some Themes and Topics covered in Level 2: Numbers through 100 Introducing yourself and asking others about themselves Weather Seasons Months of the Year Days of the Week Daily Routines Clothing and what you wear in different weather Using Can Using Should and Shouldn't Places in the City Around Your Neighborhood Talk about your family and extended family Using adjectives Using "going to" and "will" Using Present Continuous -ing to describe what you and others are doing or what you like doing Talk about the rooms in your home and the things in your home Every week I will share a video introducing the vocabulary, sentences, and questions for the week so that students and parents can become familiar with the topic and pronunciation before class and have it as a reference to review after class! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Themes and Topics covered in Level 1: Numbers 1-20 Colors Shapes Talking about your and others feelings Talking about your age Weather Toys Pets Animals and Animal Actions Family Fruit Vegetables Food Clothes Baby Animals Birthdays Parts of Body 5 senses Prepositions Rooms of the house Items in the house Mastering sentence patterns like these: I am ______.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome to Level Up Literacy and Math Lab, where literacy science meets fun and Elementary and Middle School Math are made easy!
Literacy Classes:
Here we give dynamic, engaging, and personal Literacy classes. Literacy is a life skill, not just a learning objective, a box to check, or even a task that can be evaluated with a letter grade. It is the foundation for a whole world of knowledge and a lifetime of learning. Our brains are wired for language, connection, and education, so reading comes naturally and is even “easy” for some. Others, they need a little support and guidance. That’s where we come in! Every student deserves to feel confident in their reading ability and develop their interests with the knowledge that reading can unlock. We aim to blend the science of reading with fun and real-world experiences to reach all students who love to be challenged and those who need a little extra support to get there!
Learning to read, however, is only the beginning! We have worked hard to comb through all of the latest research and timeless practices out there to help students just like your finally feel confident reading, find topics that interest them, and inspire them to seek out new information.
We not only help students learn to read but to become curious learners, critical thinkers, problem solvers, and empathetic humans. Along the way we read passages and stories about myths, fables, and diverse history from the americas and around the world.
We hope to break the barriers and restrictions that can come with classroom learning for so many students and give families the power to educate their children in the way they always dreamed!
Come here for all Literacy, Reading, and Writing classes from Pre-K to Secondary!
My name is Alix, and I began creating these special Literacy lessons in 2020. I was hoping to find a way to blend the latest science-based research with fun games and real-world applications that helped students become confident readers, especially those who felt nothing else was working for them. I have grown from a one-teacher operation to a multi-teacher organization with like-minded educators.
We use a program/system based on Orton-Gillingham's multi-sensory approaches and other research-based techniques proven to show results for all learners, especially those struggling. We work to stay up-to-date with the latest studies to provide the best resources and support for our students. Our materials and lessons are continuously updated. Each class is designed to target all 6 Key Components of Literacy in a multisensory and holistic manner to build a strong foundation while making connections with new friends around the world and having fun! For us, it is essential that students feel comfortable in class, have fun, and that their curiosity Learning to read and write (like learning a new language) is all about trial and error, making mistakes, self-correction, and perseverance! Every student needs a safe and comfortable environment where they feel safe to make mistakes and be themselves. First and foremost, we aim to create a safe space for students to grow, explore, and connect with the materials we read and each other.
In every class of every level, we will cover Phonological Awareness, Phonics, Comprehension, Fluency, Vocabulary, and Writing--the six foundational pillars of Literacy.
I strongly suggest registering for a class that fits your child's needs rather than based on Grade Level, but for reference, each course includes the Grade Level correlation. If you have any questions or concerns, especially about placement or scheduling, please send me a message :)

My name is Alix. I am from Texas in the United States, but I currently live in Oaxaca, Mexico, with my husband, two-year-old baby, and our two dogs! We are starting our Unschooling and Decolonized Parenting journey. I speak English and Spanish and have a degree in Mexican American and American Indian Studies, Linguistics, and Anthropology. I am certified in Literacy Intervention in Reading Rescue and Reading Recovery from Teacher's College at Columbia University, as well as TESOL Certified. I have worked with students privately and in schools for the past nine years in Early Literacy and English as a Second Language. I am very passionate about Literacy. It is a tool for empowerment as it is the primary way we can access information and knowledge. Everyone deserves to feel confident in reading and writing AND enjoy it....and this journey starts from our earliest moments!

Emily
Hi there! I have worked as an ESL Tutor for the last six years, teaching foreigners how to read, write, and speak English. I am fluent in three languages, English, Spanish, and American Sign Language, and I love learning languages and about different cultures worldwide!
I have also had many opportunities to work with children of various ages, backgrounds, and cultures throughout the years. I love providing my students with an inviting and exciting classroom environment where they can feel free and comfortable to ask questions and learn! I think that building a rapport and getting to know my students, as well as enthusiasm and having fun, are equally important as discipline and knowledge when it comes to education!
