Class Experience
US Grade Kindergarten - 2
In this ongoing class I will create personalized lessons based on the topics you want your student to practice. I am happy to teach writing, spelling, grammar, phonics, and ESL. Some examples of what I can work on with your student are: reading and spelling CVC and CVCe words, spelling tips and tricks, phonemic awareness, parts of speech, writing sentences and paragraphs, and grammar skills. In my classroom I usually teach using google slides that I create. With this class I will add props, flashcards, whiteboard, and whatever else I may need for interesting lessons. I am a very patient and thorough teacher. I allow students time to think through questions before I simply offer up an answer. I prefer to guide students to discover the answers on their own with as much assistance as they need to get there. As a homeschool mom, I "tutored" my own children for 26 years and find this to be my preferred way to teach. It's amazing the progress that can be made in a one-on-one class setting. I enjoy watching kids learn, progress, and gain confidence in themselves. Since this is an ongoing class, you are free to try one class to see how you like it and to continue if it seems to be a good fit. You can subscribe and unsubscribe easily. If you prefer another time slot than what I have available, please message me and I'll see what I can do for you. I look forward to meeting your child.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Texas A&M University
Howdy from East Tennessee! I’m Shelley Greaney, and I love teaching on Outschool. I earned my bachelor’s degree at Texas A&M University, majoring in journalism with a minor in English. I'm a mother of six, grandmother of five, and I home schooled all of my children for a total of 26 years. I began teaching online five years ago as an ESL teacher and then started nutrition and grammar classes on Outschool. I also taught as a volunteer for elementary-aged children for ten years.
As a true grammar nerd, I offer foundational grammar classes for grades one, two, and three. The Great Grammar Adventure, a 29-week ongoing class, covers over a semester’s worth of grammar topics with two writing units, as well. I'm always looking for ways to make grammar more interesting for students.
I also teach First Grade Curriculum for K-1st graders. This class meets three times per week and covers a variety of topics including phonics, math, language arts, telling time on an analog clock, reading a calendar, social skills, and so much more. Students enjoy a new theme every week, worksheets to reinforce what we learn in class, and Show & Tell at the end of every class.
I believe learning should always be engaging, fun, and practical, and I work very hard to make sure each student, regardless of level, feels successful in class. I incorporate fun-themed slides, open-ended questions, scaffolding, and discussion to keep kids interested and engaged in class. I believe in letting kids share and participate in class, while maintaining an organized learning atmosphere. Lots of smiles and laughter are welcome in my classroom every day. I hope to see your child in my zoom room sometime soon.
