Learners will be given one-on-one attention to focus on the literacy help and instruction they need now. The intent of this private tutoring session is to give learners a variety of tools and the practice they need to approach reading and writing with confidence and a positive attitude. The class atmosphere will be fun and engaging for learners.

Prior to the first session, I ask that learners and their families message me about areas of need for specific literacy topics and or curriculum. During our first session, I will continue to collect information and assess learners to determine what instruction might be most helpful. I will work closely with learners and families to ensure your goals are met while also being aware of curriculum goals. One-on-one tutoring sessions will combine the learner’s individual needs with common core standards at the learner’s grade level. I will create personalized, interactive lessons to meet the learner’s needs.

Examples of topics taught include:
- reading fluency
- reading comprehension
- decoding and word recognition
- vocabulary
- grammar and mechanics (spelling, punctuation, capitalization)
- writing skills, including organization and writing for a variety of purposes

This class is appropriate for all learners grades 4 -8 with specific literacy tutoring needs. 

I am available Monday-Friday 8:30am – 2:30pm EST. Please reach out to request a specific tutoring time. Sessions can be ongoing or on an as-needed basis.
