Homework
1-2 hours per week. Writing homework will be assigned at the end of each class so that valuable learning time is not occupied in the mechanics of writing. The homework will always be optional; however, more growth and quicker gains will be evident when students write outside of class time.Grading
These tutoring sessions will not be assessed for a grade; however, I am happy to help parents understand their child's growth if it is requestedClass Experience
These private tutoring sessions will be individualized lessons designed to overcome learning struggles and intensify learning skills. I will work together with you, the parent, to create meaningful learning opportunities for each class. All areas of Language Arts will be covered on an as needed basis: reading fluency and comprehension, vocabulary, spelling, and writing in a variety of forms. During writing instruction, early learners will begin composing well-written sentences. Intermediate students will compose a good paragraph that includes excellent word choice, transitions, grammar and punctuation. Older learners will compose longer essays with an emphasis on understanding the these three parts: introduction, body and conclusion. Most lessons will function best if learners write at home between classes. I am always available to help assist with homework, too!
Learning Goals
The learner will improve reading fluency and/or comprehension, writing skills as appropriate to developmental level, acquire spelling pattern knowledge, and build confidence in the entire academic area of Language Arts.
Other Details
Learning Needs
Neuro typical and neuro diverse learners will succeed in these classes, because they are individualized toward each unique child's strengths and needs.
Supply List

Writing homework from the previous lesson can either be uploaded through the classroom, or screen shared during the lesson if it is digital. The teacher will supply any necessary practice material which may be an emailed worksheet to be printed at home. Students may need to print individualized worksheets or word cards.
