This is our most exciting course offering because there's nothing else like it on Outschool (at least not yet 😂).

💡 Now offering 1:1 tutoring again! Our private tutoring listing shows up as a "group class" rather than in the 1:1 search filter. You can go directly to it by using this link: https://outschool.com/classes/accelerated-reading-spelling-and-vocabulary-private-tutoring-ongoing-8vTymRZT


💰New Refund policy: Our refund policy for LIVE* ongoing/subscription classes is more flexible than Outschool's policy in this way: If you need to withdraw from a class at least 7 days before it meets or within 24 hours of payment, you will receive a full refund. You must contact the organization owner, Paula Smith for a refund if your request falls 7 or more days before the class meets. If you need to withdraw within 24 hours of payment, you will automatically receive a refund when you withdraw without needing to contact Paula.

*This does NOT apply to "courses" that have a set beginning and end date due to the minimum enrollment that must be met to run the class. Please get in touch with us before enrolling if you are unsure if the class is an ongoing/subscription class or a "course".  Self-paced classes and "courses" strictly follow Outschool's refund policy.

————  🏊 About  the Founder, Paula Smith  🍕  ————

Hello! I'm excited to offer over 20 years of teaching experience to your child's educational development! I offer a wide variety of reading and spelling classes geared toward elementary through middle school-age students. 

My specialty is getting non-readers, struggling readers, and readers with Dyslexia, back on grade level in 12 clinical hours or less using the Phono-graphix method. 

I have maintained a private reading clinic out of my home for twenty years and I am very proud to see some of my very first students graduating from college and becoming teachers!!!

I believe that my job as a teacher is to find the best way to help each student, rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all approach.  To do that, I keep my class sizes small and offer private tutoring sessions. I identify reading difficulties and tailor my teaching to help students overcome them. 

I use the Phono-graphix method of teaching reading which was developed for students with Dyslexia. The Phono-Graphix method is based on the Science of Reading. You can learn more about this method by visiting Phono-graphix.com. I was trained in person by the program authors and have had success with it for over twenty years.

My passion is serving my students academically and by encouraging them to adopt this powerful success formula: identifying desired outcomes, knowing what inspires them, taking massive action, noticing their results, and updating their approach. 

I am a happily married mother of three and enjoy reading and being a fan of my hometown teams, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Royals!!!
