This is an ongoing 1:1 tutoring class for students. One to one tutoring is a great way to focus on specific skills and tailor support. As a qualified teacher and certified Science of Reading tutor, I will create a class that supports your learner and their learning journey. This class aims to provide 1:1 tutoring support on a regular basis to students. Our focus will be on phonics, pre-reading, and early reading and writing skills, depending on the areas students wish to work on. As a certified Science of Reading tutor, the lessons will also be grounded in theWe may also explore story elements and comprehension skills. I will create an individualized learning plan for the learner, with regular input from and feedback to the student's parents. Each plan is customized to address student needs and also to target areas that parents feel their learner needs support. 💐 Get $10 off your first 1 to 1 class with coupon code BUTLEHJXPK5💐 I like to begin our first session with an assessment, so that I can better understand where your learner is on their reading journey. Then I will create a personalised curriculum for your learner. I also like to consult with parents to identify areas of concern or areas that you feel would be important to support your learner. For younger learners who want to explore and identify letter sounds and names, I also offer a shorter 20 minute class, as a 30 minute class may be too long for young learners. We begin by learning to identify our letter shapes and sounds. Listening for those initial letter sounds in words. When learners who have an understanding of their letter names, shapes and sound, we will begin to explore short vowel sounds and words, such as man / can / van. Then we will begin to learn how letters blend together such as blens, digraphs, r controlled vowels, etc. We will slowly build your learner's skills, identify gaps that may need to be learned and help your learner grow as a confident learner. Once you book this class please reach out the me with specific goals or areas that you wish me to work on. I will work closely with you as we support your child.
Learning Goals

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from Open University
Hello! My name is Roisin. Welcome to my classroom!
I have a both a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and a Master's Degree in Education. For more than 20 years I have been a teacher and an educator. I have been a classroom teacher, a curriculum designer, a teacher trainer and an online English teacher. I have experience teaching students from PreSchool through to 9th grade, both in a regular classroom and also in a virtual classroom. For me as an educator, it has been rewarding at every level to nurture and foster early skills and equip young learners with the tools they need to inquire and question about the world around them. I love to see how these skills grow and develop, and support learners as they progress throughout the grades.
I believe that children learn when they are actively engaged in their learning, sharing their ideas and collaborating with their peers. Learning is inspired by lessons that are meaningful and relevant to students. The lessons spark their interest, nurture and develop an understanding of a 'big idea' and build essential skills. And of course fun and enjoyment in the classroom are essential ingredients too. When students are happy and engaged, those meaningful conversations and interactions happen naturally in the classroom.
Over the past few years I have learned to surf (badly). I am by no means a good surfer (in fact I'm pretty poor), but there is nothing more rewarding than finally standing upright on that board! Its good to feel the challenge of slowly mastering the various steps, before finally mastering the 'pop-up'. And nothing more humbling than seeing the little kids whizz past you as you struggle to master those skills during the process!
