This is a fifteen week course for learners who are fluently reading CVC words and are ready for more intermediate level phonics instruction. By the end of this course, learners will be able to read intermediate level stories and will even be ready for beginner level chapter books. My teaching style is simple yet highly interactive, using tools such as songs, flashcards, books, games, and occasionally, slides and videos.
Learning Goals
Students will learn to read words with consonant blends. This includes mastery of both beginning consonant blends and ending consonant blends.Students will learn about "silent e" and learn to read words with long vowel sounds and will distinguish long vowel words for short vowel words.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have over ten years experience teaching and tutoring learners of all ages and in a variety of subjects. I hold my TESOL certificate and have taught English in both private school settings as well as through private tutoring. I also teach and tutor reading and ELA and ESL for other online companies in addition to Outschool. My first experience tutoring in reading was as a senior in high school to elementary aged students. Seeing them learn and succeed instilled in me a passion for teaching and tutoring. I have since then continued to teach and tutor privately, both in person and online. I have also taught in private schools where I have worked with teaching students to read. I love teaching and working with young learners, including my own little ones who I teach at home. Many of these activities I bring into my classes have first been used with my own little ones. Now it is my delight to teach my own children at home how to read.Reviews
