Welcome to my ESL Phonics Class! In this ESL phonics class, I focus on helping students develop a strong foundation in reading and pronunciation through the understanding of phonics. Phonics is a method that teaches the relationships between letters and their sounds, which is crucial for reading and speaking English accurately. What Your Child Will Learn: Letter-Sound Relationships: Students will learn the sounds associated with each letter and letter combination. This helps them decode new words and improves their reading fluency. Blending Sounds: We practice blending individual sounds together to form words. This skill is essential for reading new and unfamiliar words independently. Word Families: Students will explore groups of words that have similar patterns (e.g., cat, hat, bat) to help them recognize and read words more quickly. Spelling and Pronunciation: By understanding phonics rules, students will improve their spelling and pronunciation skills, which enhances both their reading and speaking abilities. Building Vocabulary: As students learn to decode words, they’ll also build their vocabulary, which supports their overall language development. Class Structure: Interactive Lessons: the classes include engaging activities like songs, games, and hands-on exercises to make learning phonics enjoyable. Small Group Instruction: Students benefit from personalized attention. Progress Monitoring: I regularly assess each student’s progress and provide individualized support to address their unique needs. Why Phonics is Important: Phonics instruction is a key component in helping students become confident readers and effective communicators. By mastering phonics, students gain the skills needed to approach reading and writing with greater ease and enjoyment. I am excited to work with your child and support their journey in learning English. If you have any questions or need more information, please feel free to reach out!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Linguistics from Walla Walla University
Hello everyone!
My name is Rebekah, and I’m thrilled to be part of the Outschool community. I bring over 12 years of experience in teaching literature and English as a Second Language (ESL) to learners of all ages and backgrounds. My passion for language and storytelling has always been at the heart of my teaching, and I love helping students discover the joy of reading, writing, and communication.
I have a bachelor's degree in Modern Languages and a TEFL certification with a focus on young learners, I’ve had the privilege of teaching in a variety of settings—from traditional classrooms and colleges, to online platforms, from young beginners to advanced language learners. I’m dedicated to creating an inclusive and engaging environment where students feel encouraged to express themselves, think critically, and improve their language skills.
In my literature classes, we explore classic and contemporary works, diving deep into themes, character development, and literary techniques. In my ESL courses, I focus on practical language skills—speaking, listening, reading, and writing—tailored to each student’s proficiency level. My teaching style is interactive and student-centered, ensuring that each learner feels confident and motivated to progress.
Outside of teaching, I’m an avid reader and writer myself, constantly seeking new ways to bring creativity and innovation into my lessons. I look forward to meeting you and sharing my love of language and literature in a fun and supportive learning experience!
