Classes will combine 3 segment elements: 1/3 teaching instruction focused on the topic/theme, 1/3 student examples (from the previous week's topic), and 1/3 class discussion. This class teaches the #1 accepted book for college-level reading and comprehension - but don't worry, the method is very simple, and I've been teaching students as young as 7 years old the technique (and those who are in their 60s.) As an Ongoing class, I (1) review and teach the method weekly, (2) have students...
1. Learn the Adler technique to identify the 3 main points (non-story-based books) in 30 minutes. 2. Chart books that have been read and identify a list of books to read. 3. Practice oral book reports using the Adler Method. 4. Grasp how to read various genres and present summaries at the college level. 5. Practice writing book reports following the Adler reading technique.
I bring 35 years of teaching of which half of these I was a very challenged reader, and the other half has focused on teaching reading and comprehension with students both young and old. I dropped out of college after 2 years because of my significant reading and comprehension problem. It was many years later that I read Adler’s book which was on my son’s homeschool reading list. It revolutionized both my reading and learning 20 years ago. Since then, I’ve read an average of 3 books a week and can recall 1-2 of the main points of most of those books because of this reading technique.
Homework Offered
There will be an average of 1-2 hours of homework for class depending on the desired reading pace of the student. This will include weekly assignments that follow the class lesson that will integrate with the Student Book Project Presentations.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
