Prevent summer learning loss! Let's have fun doing reading comprehension! Join us for a special 10-week summer course with ALL NEW STORIES! Are you looking for a different way for your child to practice vocabulary and reading comprehension? Then this is the class for them! This class is designed for students with Autism, ADHD and Neurodiverse Learners who are looking to learn or review kindergarten, first and second grade reading comprehension concepts. By incorporating personal interests (characters/kid friendly topics) into each lesson, it will allow students to be engaged for the entire 30 minutes. I will also be providing numerous learning options so no matter what kind of learner students are, they will be able to grasp the material. If you child is a visual learner, we will have numerous PowerPoints, charts, graphs and diagrams so they can see all the information. If they are an auditory learner, I always make sure to explain everything thoroughly so students understand the topic. Even if your child is a kinesthetic learner, there will be time that we will be moving to practice our reading comprehension skills. Most importantly this class is a no judgement zone. Every student will feel safe and able to be themselves in this class while they learn and have fun! This is a special 10-week summer course. Students can sign up on a week to week basis. These classes do not build on each other, so students can start during any week over the summer! If you took any of my reading comprehension classes over the school year please note that these are all NEW STORIES! My stories get your child EXCITED TO LEARN because it is on topics that they enjoy! Our schedule of story themes will be as follows: Week of June 10th - Mario Story Week of June 17th - Pokemon Story Week of June 24th - Sonic Story Week of July 1st - Minecraft Story Week of July 8th - Roblox Story Week of July 15th - SpongeBob Story Week of July 22nd - Mario Kart Story Week of July 29th - Animal Crossing Story Week of August 5th - Kirby Story Week of August 12th - Scooby Doo Story I will see you in the classroom!

Teacher expertise and credentials
New York Teaching Certificate in Health/PE
Throughout my almost 2 decades in education, I have worked with students from Preschool all the way up to college. After receiving my education degree from SUNY Brockport, I received my Masters' Degree in Educational Administration (School Building Leader and School District Leader) from Lehman College. I have spent over a decade working for NYC DOE and also spent two years working at Barnard College, the sister college of Columbia University.
My experiences with students in all of these age groups taught me one thing, over and over again -- one size fits none. You can't mass produce education, it only works well if it's individualized, and if lessons are taught in ways that excite, interest and engage each student. In 2012, I started a company focusing on unique and individual learning techniques. Our in-person classes taught a myriad of educational lessons through mediums that gripped my students -- we taught math concepts through movement games, language and writing skills through art, etc. During the coronavirus pandemic, I transitioned that same concept to my Outschool classes -- it's a platform that I love because it allows me to tap into kids' niche interests in an even more drilled down way than I could do in person. Now, whether my younger students are learning about a certain calculation technique via a Pokemon character, or my older ones are discussing their true passions as a way to figure out how to get into their dream colleges, I'm most satisfied with my work when I'm meeting kids right where they are. Seeing a child learn something new while he or she is showcasing expertise in a subject area of passion is a win for me and for the student. I learn from my students every day, and I'm thrilled when they feel like they've grown and gained in each class, too.Reviews
