US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - Kindergarten
Every class, we will share a wonderful read-aloud and work on reading comprehension. The goal of this course is to ignite an interest in reading! The children may also request stories if they would like to share a certain read-aloud with the group. We will move, chat, sing and laugh throughout the lessons and each student will get a chance to their thoughts with the group! It is an exciting way to start a lifelong love of reading. Books will include fiction, non-fiction, fairy tales, traditional and classic stories as well as contemporary children's literature.

Hello!
I am Jessica! I am so excited to be teaching on Outschool and I am eager to meet your kiddos. Here on Outschool, I offer a variety of courses related to English, reading, writing, social studies and sociology.
As for qualifications: I have degrees in Sociology and Education and have published a Young Adult biography about the life of Gandhi. I have taught many grade levels, including preschool, and also ESL (English as a Second Language).
My teaching philosophy is centered around the notion that children learn best in low-stress situations with caring and empathetic instructors. I believe strongly that my students have all of the tools within them to learn and become their best selves. My role is as a supportive guide.
I love Indian food, my pets and my 2 sweet sons!
