This is an individualized and 100% interactive tutoring series where we will meet to work on specific skills that either you identify or that I can identify with some simple evaluation tools. We can meet once or twice per week to fit everyone's schedules. Reading and literacy skills are extremely important, and I want all kids to learn the love of reading. Reading helps students excel in all subjects and gives them the confidence to learn in all areas. I have a lively and fun teaching style, having tutored many students in many different venues including face-to-face, virtual, and for tutoring franchises across the country. I can create curriculum if needed and/or support what a student is doing at school. For instance, for an early reader, I can evaluate what phonics skills and sight words need to be strengthened, work on these both with fun drills and literature so that the student loves to read again because it will be fun and not hard! For an older learner, I can review fluency in reading and work on comprehension skills. I am a Library Director, so I can also work through literature assignments or simply use literature that your child loves to help them practice and improve their reading skills, thus escalating their love of reading for a lifetime. Tutoring works best if you have some ideas of what areas need working on, and I will do the rest to come up with a plan for learning. I love to talk to parents along with the student to help them work together for a high success, low stress experience.
Learning Goals
Students will improve the reading and literacy skills that they and their parents and teachers identify as their biggest need and set goals to achieve them.
Other Details
Supply List
Any school materials that are needed for work should be emailed to me if possible so that I can review them or create lessons to go with them. If general skill building is needed, then this will not be necessary.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Iowa Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts
Hello! I am a certified English and journalism teacher in the state of Iowa and was a Library Director for almost 18 years. I spent those years happily sharing books and the love of reading through story times, after school programs, and outreach to schools. As a member of the Rural Library Fellowship, I created a reading project for 2nd and 3rd graders in my community that increased their reading scores by 32%. Before becoming a librarian, I had 5 years of classroom experience as well as 10 years of private tutoring experience. I have been teaching remotely for 4 years.
I love teaching literacy, writing, and reading skills as well as the LOVE of reading to all ages on Outschool. My philosophy is that reading and good books can teach skills across the curriculum. I incorporate the science of reading and individualize each lesson to work the core skills that each student needs to fill in gaps so that they can be more successful and have more fun with their reading. I have seen the love of and interest in reading and books die in students using a traditional curriculum, and I want that interest and love to last a lifetime! I also love to read with kids and talk about books so they not only have fun with them, but also think of them as friends that can help them along their path in life.
In my spare time, in addition to reading, I love to travel, work out, play with my cat, and cheer for the Iowa State Cyclones!
