Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 5
In this class, your child will be practicing their English skills centered around a specific goal. Perhaps a teacher has raised an area of concern and you would like your child to practise more. I will be providing the texts so that children and I can work together. Comprehension questions and tips on how to improve reading, reading aloud and answering exam type questions are also skills that can be addressed depending on the focus requested by the parent. 

Your child will receive an individualized lesson. I am a very experienced teacher and good at what I do so can adapt to what your child needs. Writing is an essential skill in their academic toolkit and helps with all areas of the curriculum and their daily life. 

Note: If a learner is more than 10 minutes late, it will be considered a missed class as per Outschool policy and the class is not eligible for a refund. If your leaner needs to cancel class, I can reschedule for a make-up meeting. 

*************************

Thank you for your support and for valuing your child’s learning experience. To ensure smooth scheduling for all students, I’d like to kindly remind you of my cancellation and rescheduling policy, which aligns with Outschool’s guidelines:

Cancellations made more than 24 hours in advance – A refund may be issued. 
One reschedule allowed per 8 weeks (with 24 hours’ notice). Exceptions may be made in emergencies.
Missed classes – If a learner is absent, refunds are not provided, as per Outschool’s policy.
If I need to reschedule due to a conflict on my end, I will reach out to arrange a new time. If we cannot find a suitable time, I will issue a refund.

If your learner has not joined the meeting 10 minutes after the class’s start time, the meeting may be cancelled, at the teacher’s discretion. This is considered a missed meeting and you are not entitled to a refund. This is also so as to not impact the next student's learning time. 

This policy helps lessons run smoothly and ensures fairness to all families, including those on a waiting list who may want an open spot. Thank you for your understanding, and I appreciate your continued support in making our classes a great experience for all learners!

************************
Lessons will be focused around texts that are differentiated for the individual learner. 

I will be:
- Developing goals for every reader. 
- High frequency words / vocabulary appropriate for your learner's age.
- Implementing step-by-step strategies for skilled reading during lesson time.
- Guiding readers through different levels of reading texts and a variety of texts from fiction to non-fiction.
- Vocabulary explanation and application.
- Comprehension skills support - inference, technical, author's intent and retrieval question exploration. 
- Supporting automaticity - in this case means being able to read or produce language without having to focus on individual words or grammar rules.
- Encouraging, scaffolding and modeling prosody.
- Fun reading books with lots of variety to suit your learner's needs and preferences. 

Prosody refers to the rhythm, intonation, and stress patterns of language, which convey information about the speaker's attitude, emotion, and emphasis.

Focusing on developing automaticity and prosody in language learning can help learners become more fluent and effective communicators. It helps them process and produce language more quickly and accurately, and convey meaning effectively.

I am looking forward to helping your child reach their goals!

This is a great class for general improvement but also for children who excel at reading or those children who feel that they are not progressing at fast as their peer groups and are losing interest in reading.

Learning Goals

To be able to read with increased confidence.
