Homework
There will be no "assigned" homework, but I can share activities that caregivers have the option of using at home with their child to help improve their reading skills. In my experience, children who are immersed in literacy experiences (from school, home, and tutoring) make the most progress, and the combined efforts can even close the existing reading gap completely.Assessment
I use informal assessments to discover where to begin with a student, as well as for monitoring progress, and for making instructional decisions.Class Experience
US Grade 2 - 5
***Please sign up ONLY for the times I've listed as available. I am not available for tutoring via Outschool's open-ended scheduler. I offer Orton-Gillingham based instruction (currently tucked into an online format). Sessions take about 30 minutes to complete. In addition to learning the skills needed to decode, lessons will include work around vocabulary, spelling, writing complete sentences, and fluency. I also share activities that families can do at home to support their child's progress. I am a passionate Full Time Special Education (reading and writing) teacher by day and I've also worked as an adjunct professor in two graduate programs (Special Education & Differentiating Instruction). I've been teaching in a public school setting for over 24 years now and have been trained in a variety of reading and writing instruction models. I have a Masters degree in Education (Learning Disabilities) and I use this formula on a daily basis with a variety of learners... and every single one of them is making growth! I believe that all children can learn to read. We just need to put in the work! In this particular "individual" class, I will provide your child with completely individualized 1:1 instruction catering to where your child's reading skills are at right now and guide them on the path to becoming independent readers. Once your child learns the tools for independent reading, the really wonderful things in life are going to open up for them! Let’s get started! I can’t wait to meet your child and help them become an independent reader!
Learning Goals
Students will learn to read (decode words), build vocabulary knowledge, improve spelling and writing skills, and increase reading fluency.
Other Details
Supply List
Please have a piece of textured material in which the student can trace their finger over as needed (it can be fabric, textured paper, sandpaper, clay in a tray, etc.). This will be needed from time to time to assist with letter-reversal work and spelling. The online "Whiteboard" app/function that we will use for writing/spelling instruction is a writing platform called Miro. Miro Lite is free! I will share my board when we begin.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Hi! I offer individual reading tutoring beginning at your child's individual reading ability and taking them forward from there. Our sessions involve Orton-Gillingham based instruction tucked into an online format.
I am a passionate FT reading and writing teacher. I have also worked as an adjunct professor for two graduate programs (Special Education & Differentiating Instruction). I've been teaching in a public school setting for over 20 years now and have been trained in a variety of research-based reading and writing strategies and instructional curriculum. I have a Masters degree in Education (Learning Disabilities) and I'm a licensed special education teacher, grades K-12.
If you have more than 1 child at similar reading levels that you'd like to enroll at the same time, reach out to me and perhaps we can create a "small group" class for you.
I can't wait to meet your child and get started!
