Based on our communications prior to class, and the information you share, I may suggest a graphic organizer to be used, or a show-and-tell object be brought to class to support your student in their communication efforts. I will share any files to be printed the day before our meeting. I will let you know in advance if there are any materials your student should bring to class, or graphic organizers to print / complete before we meet. Each class is personalized to the particular student’s needs. Thank you for your close communication with me. It helps me to support your student’s success. 

Please tell me a little about your student prior to our class. I would like to know some of their interests, recent exciting experiences, or anything important to them. This gives us a comfortable jumping off point for conversations if your learner is struggling to form thoughts. Also, it is important you share with me what you hope to accomplish during our time together in class. What particular speaking / communication needs would like to see addressed? What is your student’s current comfort level with public speaking and conversation? Please feel free to share both strengths and weaknesses. This helps me best prepare for your individual student.

** If you do not see a time that works for you and your student, please contact me and I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. I am able to set up some late afternoon and early evening times to meet with your student on an as needed basis. I look forward to hearing from you.
