includedClass Experience
Watch pre-recorded videos recorded by me on four lessons containing grammar, writing, vocabulary, and reading! Suitable for students learning the material for the first time or older students needing a review! Class provides plenty of time to practice the skills in each unit before moving on to the next one. I'll be with you every step of the way and can answer any questions you may have! * Please see the syllabus for a detailed description of each class. Class will cover writing skills, 20 new grammar terms that can make your writing stronger, reading skills, and grammar terms. Grammar is a lot to take in, with many rules and changing parts. What better way to learn than using games and fun virtual worksheets to learn as we play?! Fun cartoon YouTube video instruction is used here and there! Students will be provided with a game account for a fun way to complete homework in between classes. I can also see the student's virtual worksheets for grading and help before starting the next video class. This is a self-paced class, but I am here to answer questions and further elaborate. Please allow me til the end of the day to reply to any messages.
