I have used this program for about 3 years in my role as literacy intervention teacher in the public school I’m currently in.  

I’m a certified teacher and have 10 years of experience.  I’ve taught grade 1 and have subbed in K-6 classrooms.  

Homework Offered
Assessments Offered
A brief assessment will be administered within the first few classes with your child to inform my teaching and to establish a baseline.  I want your child to feel comfortable with me before I assess him/her so that the results are accurate. 

I will do another assessment when we’re about 17 weeks through the program.

A final assessment will be done around week 30.
Grades Offered

This class is most effective for students who are entering pre-k or K.
