Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 2
This course is created for students that are struggling with reading, spelling, and phonics sounds.  We will have fun learning and every week we will assign homework and or activities when necessary. This course is customizable based on the students needs. We will meet weekly and we will work in the following workbooks (subject to vary): Spectrum Spelling/Phonics, Scholastic Spelling (for younger students), Phonics (with Nearpod Curriculum),  Raz-Plus level reading books (or Oxford Owl Tree books), and a variety of other resources. For homework, please be ready to use the third party app SplashLearn, Lalilo, and/or Khan Academy Kids. You will have to create logins and the teacher will assign homework for the student to complete for added practice outside of class.  We may even use Youtube videos in class to help build more confidence in phonics sounds and materials.   

Since this is an ongoing course, this course has an identical structure each week and is based on the learners' skills.  Therefore, the course is technically learner directed with some guidance from the teacher for materials and support.  The first four weeks of lessons will look like this, unless the student needs to focus more on the previous week's materials:

Week 1, July 13: Spelling Lesson 1, (possible Phonics), and Reading Lesson. Assigned spelling homework

Week 2, July 20 : Spelling Lesson 2, (possible Phonics), and Reading Lesson. Assigned spelling homework

Week 3 July 27: Spelling Lesson 3, (possible Phonics), and Reading Lesson. Assigned spelling homework

Week 4 August 3: Spelling Lesson 4, (possible Phonics), and Reading Lesson. Assigned spelling homework

Week 5 August 10th and so forth will have a similar structure. 

This course will be a teacher does, students do, we do style course. The teacher will write on the white board on camera or on screen letters and help the student enunciate sounds and help them read the on screen material. During the first lesson together, the student will be evaluated to see where they best fit and what level of reading they can do.  Please inform the teacher of any other experience the student may have prior to class. The course may have  at least 2 students attend at once, but usually is best for a one-on-one course to help the student build confidence. Make sure the student has a notebook handy and keeps the homework spelling sheets for a review in sixth lesson.

Since this is an on-going course, they student may stop at any time, but they can rejoin as long as they inform the teacher when they will come back to class. The course will start back at where they last left off. 

I cannot wait to see you in class and join the fun.

My name is Gabby and I love to share my passions with others  I enjoy teaching children from ages 5-13. I enjoy teaching a variety of topics from English phonics/reading skills to arts and crafts. You may even be able to learn some makeup and beauty techniques.

I have strong  teaching skills to help beginner to intermediate learners from ages 6-13 learn anything they desire. I have a total of 8 years experience in the teaching field with children and young adults. I’ve done long distance tutoring under a student-study program in college (Business, marketing courses) for 3 years. I'm a former VIPKID teacher and I’ve taught ESL online with Chinese students from ages 4-15 for 5 years. Additionally. I possess a 120-hour TESOL certification.  I also have done free conversational courses with adults. Furthermore, I am a certified beautician and like to teach others about nail art and makeup tutorials. As well, I'm a certified crochet teacher. I have been crocheting and knitting for the past 7 years and enjoy teaching and showing others this dying art.  I hope to see you in one of my classrooms very soon.

CLASSROOM RULES  


•	CLASSROOM EQUIPMENT EXPECTATIONS :  Students should arrive 5 minutes prior to class for audio and video checks. Make sure that all equipment is working properly. If you are having problems or running late, please notify the teacher about the issues via the Outschool messaging system.  According to the Outschool policy, if your learner has not joined the meeting 10 minutes after the class’s start time, the meeting may be cancelled, at the teacher’s discretion. This is considered a missed meeting and you are not entitled to a refund. After introductions and class welcome time, students should keep microphones muted in order to reduce background noise. Students should be familiar with muting/unmuting if they choose to participate in class discussion, and parents of younger learners should be nearby if the younger learner cannot manage the mute button.

•	LATE OR MISSED CLASSES/Refunds:  Please notify the teacher via Outschool messaging system, if you will be late or unable to attend the class within 24 hours before start time. The teacher will discuss option for make up time or refunds (depending on course). The teacher generally follows a prorated refund system in alignment with the Outschool refund policies (Please refer to https://support.outschool.com/en/articles/16379-outschool-s-happiness-guarantee-and-refunds for more information).

•	CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT & STUDENT BEHAVIOR:  Parents are welcome to attend class, as a support for the student. However, make sure that parent is not visible in the webcam, as it can be distracting to other in the class.  Please refrain from eating or drinking (unless it is water), in class, as this can also be disruptive to the other students and teacher. Make sure the students dress appropriately (t-shirt, pants, No Hats please, unless for Halloween or specified) for class. Depending on lesson theme, the teacher may encourage students to dress in costume, but please do not have any face coverings. Please pay attention these announcements in the course discussion boards. Don’t not use foul language or discriminate against anyone in the classroom. This is intolerable behavior. If the students’ behavior is inappropriate, they will be removed from the course.
