English Tutoring, Ages 8-12

In this ongoing tutoring class, students will receive individualized instruction in English and reading skills. 
Week 1- The instructor will conduct an informal assessment of the child's reading ability. This will be accomplished through reading a specifically selected passage, after communicating with the child's parent via classroom and email. We will play some simple word games and complete activities to assess strength with phonics, comprehension and grammar. 
Week 2 and so on- The instructor will target specific skills and provide instruction and practice in these each week following the first week, continuing to build on previous knowledge. 
The instructor will maintain communication with the guardian to see how the instruction is affecting the child's proficiency, and will make adjustments as needed to the curriculum. 
There will be informal assessments throughout the tutoring sessions.
