Class Experience

Through my storytelling and read-aloud classes, I'll let my students enjoy reading and listening to stories in each session. Students will also learn different strategies to learn how to read and write. For a 40 minute period, I will provide various activities including read-aloud, listening comprehension Q&A, and songs and games. My classes are very structured and kids friendly which means, kids will not need too much assistance from their guardians while they participate in the lessons. Students will not have to be prepared with prerequisite skills for reading. I am very excited to meet all different learners and see them enjoy my storytime and fun activities!

Learning Goals

The teacher will use the whole language approach so that students can easily learn and understand new words and expressions. After a lesson, extra materials will be provided to students so they can review things that they learned during the class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I am a certified public school teacher in the U.S. I am currently teaching kindergarten at a public school. It is my 10th year of teaching at my current school. 
I majored in English and Elementary Education. I have two master’s degrees. I love learning and teaching as much as chocolates and coffee!
I know that students learn the best when teachers guide them to discover knowledge and engage in their learning by setting up clear learning objectives and provide concrete expectations. And the most important thing for both teachers and students is to have fun through their teaching and learning journeys!
