What will be taught? This personalized tutoring program delves deeply into phonics, concentrating on seamlessly transitioning from single to multisyllabic words. Utilizing the Orton-Gillingham method, students will master strategies to decode and encode (read/spell) complex words, fostering confidence and fluency in reading. You can find samples of the curriculum I developed for this course on my TPT store- https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/store/lori-girton Topics Covered Topics include phonemic awareness, syllable types, vowel teams, prefixes, suffixes, and word roots, all tailored to the individual student's needs. By focusing on one-on-one instruction, we ensure targeted support and accelerated progress. Class Structure Each session is meticulously designed to cater to the unique learning pace and preferences of the individual student. Beginning with a review of previous concepts, we then delve into new material, providing ample time for hands-on practice and reinforcement. How I teach Through personalized instruction, I employ a multisensory approach, blending visual, auditory, and kinesthetic techniques to maximize learning. With patient guidance and encouragement, students build essential skills while developing a deep understanding of language structure. My teaching style My tutoring style is nurturing and supportive, fostering a positive learning environment where students feel empowered to tackle challenges. By building strong rapport and focusing solely on the individual learner, I create a space where every student can thrive. How much will learners get to interact with me? Learners will benefit from continuous interaction and personalized attention throughout every session. With a focus on one-on-one tutoring, students have the opportunity to ask questions, receive immediate feedback, and engage in meaningful discussions tailored to their unique needs and interests.
