Assessment
In order to ensure weekly improvement, learners will be assessed with individual forms of both formative and summative assessments depending on their age and their learning goals. The assessments will typically happen during the first session, and then be given again every few weeks to test learner progress and improvement.Class Experience
US Grade 4 - 8
This ongoing course is structured based on each student's unique learning needs. The first session will typically consist of reading assessments (structured in a fun way) so that I can get a feel for where the students are at and what their specific learning needs are. Then, we will work together to accomplish the student's individual learning goals. I will track improvement and keep in contact with families so that they know how their learner is progressing toward their goals. There are MANY different types of learning goals for students and sometimes the toughest part is identifying them. That is why my tutoring starts with assessments, and identifying goals to work towards. Below is a list of common goals I have helped my students improve upon, but keep in mind, any goal is one worth working towards and I'm happy to identify them and work with each learner individually! Example goals for learners: - I don't like reading/writing, and I want to learn to love it! - I am not confident in my reading/writing/spelling, and I get upset when I make a mistake, I want to feel more confident! - I want to learn how to read/write different genres! - I want to learn/improve how to write research papers! - I want to learn/practice different parts of speech! - I want general reading/writing/spelling improvement. - I want to be able to read/retell parts of a story to improve my comprehension. **NOTE: This class is set up for 30 minute sections, but you can schedule time blocks of 30 consecutive minutes to equal up to 2 hours depending on what is best for your individual learner.**
Learning Goals
Students will develop their own learning goals and I will be there to support them and give them the tools they need to achieve them. Depending on their unique learning goal(s) is what we will do to help work on them.
Other Details
Supply List
Supply list depends on what the student's learning goals are. I typically provide everything needed for the learner each session, unless there are specific requests beforehand. If there is ever a time where they want to bring their own homework, I just ask them to share it with me via an attachment in Outschool before class so I can implement that into the lesson. If there is ever a time where I will require students to have something with them, I will let them know prior to our session through Outschool.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
