Class Experience

As a registered IEW instructor, I read many papers from my students. I have noticed over time that many students need help with proofreading their papers. This class addresses that need by covering some tips and helpful information students can use to successfully proofread their papers. In class, we will cover different steps to walk through the process of proofreading a paper. The students will also have the opportunity to practice what they are taught in class.
The students will follow along with the slide show presentation and will be able to print and proofread an Aesop's fable for practice.
My teaching style is calm yet lighthearted. My goal is to create a space where students feel comfortable, so they can focus on learning.
After the lesson, you may submit your proofreading practice to me for feedback. I am also available to answer any questions you have about the lesson.

Learning Goals

Students will learn helpful steps for proofreading a paper.

Teacher expertise and credentials

Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

As an ESL teacher and an IEW instructor, I have gained years of experience helping students correct their grammar and their writing. While I often work with students on their proofreading in my private Grammar and Paper Review classes, as well as my Fix It! Grammar classes, I wanted to make a stand alone class that students could access at any time. 
I have over 20 years of experience working with students in a variety of settings including preschool, camp, respite care, and tutoring. My unique experience has helped me to see that every child is unique, yet every child can learn in the right environment. My goal is to create an environment where every child can learn.
