Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 4
I will teach learners the fundamental basics of writing an essay. They will learn about creating an introductory opening, body, and closing in their essays. This a lecture-style lesson in which learners will write along with the teacher who will model an essay. Learners will take part in a Q and A format and will begin showing effective writing skills with the teacher during the session. In the first week, we will focus on Descriptive and Narrative Writing. Learners will work on completing an essay plan and writing both a short descriptive writing and a narrative essay. In the second week, learners will focus on writing an essay plan for both expository and opinion writing. During the second week, learners will also work on completing both an expository and “How To” writing piece.  In the third and fourth week sessions, the learners will review and write narrative, expository, and “How To” writing pieces. Learners do not need to have much experience with writing an essay, but should at least know an essay has an opening, body, and a closing.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I have worked with students in the Florida Public School System for over 20 years. I have taught in all the core subject areas in elementary education. My experience ranges from remedial to gifted. Two years ago, I began tutoring online and focused on my passion. My online teaching experience has provided me an opportunity to find alternative ways to communicate and teach students effectively.
 My classroom focuses on the individual student, and their success is of my utmost importance. With such an extensive teaching background, I have learned strategies to make material adaptive when needed through presentation methods and delivery of material. I work to maintain a line of open communication with parents so that all students may succeed.
I am always learning and bettering myself. I enjoy swimming, reading, cooking, baking, taking photos, trying new foods, and traveling to new places.
