Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 2
This is part 4 of my reading classes. We will begin reading at a level F and work our way to a level J (this may be adjusted if I feel the group needs it). We will work on different comprehension strategies and building fluency. We will begin class by discussing the genre of the book, go over vocabulary words for the week, then move into reading the story,  and then finally completing the daily comprehension activity, we will also work on fluency poems each week. I am very routine with my classes, they will be structured the same  way every class and I will follow the course description (unless I feel the group needs to work on a different skill). I do recommend they take my first three classes prior, or be reading at a level E independently. My classes are very engaging and students will be participating each class. They will all have a turn to read and be working on the activity together as a class, sometimes we will do independent work, but it will be done during class time.

Teacher expertise and credentials
New York Teaching Certificate in English/Language Arts
I teach a variety of different classes geared toward elementary students ages 3 and up. My classes include ELA, Math, Writing, Phonics, Stories, teaching beginner, intermediate and advanced readers, simple to complex sentences, and much more. I love student participation and encourage it in all my class. 
I have 16 years of teaching experience.  I teach 4th grade ELA in a public school in NYS and have been teaching for 4 years on Outschool. I have a Masters in Elementary Education, Bachelors in History, Associates in Business. I have taught Pre-k, K, and ESL online. I have taught all subjects. Over my 16 years of teaching, I have gone to many different trainings in ELA, math, behavioral and I am trained in Logics by Ortan Gillingham and currently training and using restorative practices. 
I believe every child can learn but not all through the same method. Learning needs to be fun and engaging and needs to be a memorable experience for students to truly understand it. 
I am a mom to five wonderful kids ages 6-12. They keep me busy and I love being their number one teacher! 

Class Expectations 
1. Be on time and be prepared. Please read class material section for proper materials.
2. Class will go the full length of the time unless their is a small number of students, then it may be a little shorter (usually only five minutes) 
3. I like to engage my students through different activities and discussion, if a student doesn't want to participate that is fine, but I will encourage it. 
4. You must turn your camera on at the beginning of class.
