Personalized Tutoring for ELA, Reading, and Writing 6th - 8th Grade

I provide tutoring in all areas of English Language Arts, Reading, and Writing. I cover all Language skills, such as Conventions of Standard English, Knowledge of Language, and Vocabulary Acquisition and Use. I teach all Reading objectives, focusing on both Literature and Informational texts, including Key Ideas and Details, Craft and Structure, and Integration of Knowledge and Ideas. I also teach Writing objectives, such as Text Types and Purposes, Production of Writing, and Research to Build and Present Knowledge.  My approach is personalized to the student's needs and pace, ensuring they learn these important skills. I am happy to assist students with any homework they may find challenging. My goal is to create a supportive learning environment that helps students build confidence and overcome obstacles in their educational journey.

In my classes, I focus on minimizing direct instruction, or lectures, so students will be actively involved in the learning process. I assess students' current learning levels and background knowledge so I can tailor lessons to their educational goals.  I provide the key information students need to understand the topic and follow with activities reinforcing their understanding through practice. This approach keeps students engaged and helps them achieve their goals. By giving pre-assessments, I can determine what concepts students need to learn, and through daily formative assessments, make sure they have mastered the objectives. I believe all students can succeed, and patiently work with each student to give them that opportunity.
