Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - Kindergarten
Beginner Level
What will be taught?
Students will receive tailored support in Math, ELA, reading, and writing, focusing on grade-level concepts from kindergarten through eighth grade. Topics covered may include foundational math skills, reading comprehension, phonics, essay writing, and problem-solving strategies.

ELA: Grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, writing techniques

How is your class structured?
The class is structured around the individual needs of each learner. Sessions will begin with a brief assessment of the student's current understanding, followed by targeted instruction and practice. Each session will include a mix of direct teaching, interactive activities, and review.

How will you teach?
I will use a variety of teaching methods, including direct instruction, interactive slides, educational games, and hands-on activities. I will adapt my approach based on each student's learning style, whether they need visual aids, step-by-step explanations, or more practice through games and interactive exercises.

What's your teaching style?
My teaching style is patient, encouraging, and adaptive. I believe in creating a positive and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. I focus on building confidence as much as academic skills.

How much will learners get to interact with you?
Learners will have plenty of opportunities to interact with me during each session. The class will involve a mix of discussion, problem-solving activities, and guided practice. I will also provide feedback and answer questions in real-time, ensuring that students feel supported throughout their learning process.
Learning Goals
Master Grade-Level Math Concepts: Students will improve their understanding of key math topics such as arithmetic, fractions, decimals, and geometry, enabling them to solve problems with greater confidence and accuracy.
Improve Writing Skills: Students will learn how to structure essays, write creatively, and edit their work effectively, leading to clearer, more organized writing.
