In this ongoing class, students will learn the Floss Rule, Changing Rule, Dropping Rule, Doubling Rule, and the Rabbit Rule which will help them confidently spell in their everyday writing life. Class will meet once a week with an optional assignment for your child to complete during the week to reinforce the spelling rule learned. Students who learn these rules greatly increse their odds of spelling words correctly in their writing. Each lesson will focus on one spelling rule and provide ample opportunities for practice by breaking down the pattern, practice spelling, and playing games to reinforce the learned spelling rule. My dyslexia specialist training, which is Orton-Gillingham based, is not only beneficial for dyslexic students but for any struggling reader or speller. My main goal is for each student to leave feeling more confident in their spelling! I've witnessed time and time again that the more confident a child becomes, the faster spelling growth occurs. (Cookie the Pug dog will also make regular appearances!). ***Please notice that the five rules will be learned the first five weeks and then the topic will repeat. You can decide as a parent whether your child has mastered the spelling rules or whether you'd like them to continue the course for additional practice. In my experience, it generally takes revisiting the rules multiple times for the students to truly commit them to memory.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello! My name is Ms. Deb and I am thrilled to be offering classes at Outschool. I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a Master's degree in Educational Psychology. I also have over 150 hours of Orton Gillingham based training in reading strategies specifically targeted to dyslexic students. (Which are beneficial to all beginning readers.) I have been a dyslexia specialist for twelve years in the public school setting and have privately tutored students for the past fifteen years. I have a heart for working with dyslexic students and their families.
Working with dyslexic students and struggling readers isn’t just a career. It is a personal passion of mine because I have been through the gamut of emotions with my own child. I know the feeling of having a child that is really bright but is struggling in school and not knowing where to turn for help. I also know the joyous rewards of intervention and compassionate teachers that believed in my child. I know how that one teacher can touch your child’s life and ease your anxiety as a parent. I know the proud feeling of seeing your formerly struggling child advocating for himself. I’ve been through the journey. It is so amazing to be able to look my students’ parents in the eye at the beginning of their journey and say, “Time and time again I’ve seen reading intervention work. I will be your partner through this process.”Reviews
