This class is an opportunity to book private one-on-one tutoring in English and get help with homework assignments or a chance to get focused help to practise your writing. If you need to write an essay and are not sure where to start, you need to practise or write a speech and don't have someone to practise it with, or if you need help better understanding certain grammar rules, you can bring your work and your goals to Ms. Shiren's Flash English Class to get support, so that you can build confidence in your English writing and/or speaking skills. Please feel free to bring your own materials and assignments to class. You can also let me know if there are certain areas you would like specialized practice in, so that I can identify some useful materials for us to work with together. This class is ESL/ELL friendly, so second language learners are more than welcome to use this one-on-one class to practise their English and work on assignments. This class can be turned into an Ongoing Class if you would like consistent support in your studies. While lessons can be learner led, based on their targeted needs for the session, lessons can be organized to suit needs and Ms. Shiren will assess informally for areas where a learner could improve. Some possible areas we could target can include: For Kids: -Reading Comprehension -Reading Practice (you may need to provide photocopies for each class) -Vocabulary building and practise -Grammar Review and Practice -Story writing -Practising writing with prompts -Mastering the Hamburger Paragraph -Practising speeches For Teens: -Mastering the Hamburger Paragraph Essay (5 Paragraph Essay) -Learning different styles of essay writing and choosing the correct style for your essay -Strengthening your argument -Learning to edit for clarity and emotion -Narrowing down your research to fit your essay -Enhancing your vocabulary and grammar -Practising speeches -Practising writing of a variety of styles -Reading texts together (you may need to provide photocopies for each class) -Reading comprehension For ELL Learners: -Practise speaking and writing for ELL learners -Practising speeches -Reading Comprehension -Reading Practice -Vocabulary building and practise -Grammar Review and Practice -Story writing -Practising writing with prompts -Mastering the Hamburger Paragraph -Learning different styles of essay writing and choosing the correct style for your essay -Strengthening your argument Please don't hesitate to contact me to find out if this class would be a fit for your needs.
