Class Experience

US Grade 1
In this small group 4 week class, learners will work on a different short writing activity each week (see the schedule of writing activities below).

Classes will involve teacher-led explanation and modeling of how to do each writing activity, brainstorming ideas as a group, teacher guidance as learners work on their own writing, and also opportunities for learners to share their work with the group. 

The best way for students (aka "emerging writers") to become better writers is to spend more time writing! 

The class will provide provide students with various opportunities to practice writing down their ideas and sharing them with others if they feel comfortable doing so. 

Some classes will focus on writing several words and other classes with involve writing several short phrases or sentences. 

***Schedule of writing activities:

1) "All About Me" writing

2) "How To" writing

3) "Friendly Letter" writing

4) "Book Review" writing

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi, my name is Aalyiah Grant but you can call me Teacher Lee, welcome to my corner of the internet! I am passionate about teaching children and helping them to build their confidence while finding out what helps them to learn best.  
I have an English Bachelor's of Arts degree and a 120 Hour TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) Certification. I have 6 years of teaching and tutoring experience.
In more recent years (2021) I have taken my teaching online. I tutored elementary ELA (English Language Arts) and math in person for 6 years and I was a teacher's assistant in music education and special education classes both for one year as I completed internship programs. As an online teacher for the past 2 years I have taught ESL (English as a Second Language) to hundreds of English language learners from all around the world, tutored Elementary ELA and math, tutored middle school ELA, taught yoga and meditation classes, had some art and crafts classes, and more recently started to facilitate a book club.

Some fun facts about me are that I am currently working on my first book of poetry that I will be publishing this year in 2023, I also teach yoga classes from time to time, and I have an adorable shihpoo named Barkley!
