I will discuss with you what your preferences are in regards to homework content and homework length. I can give homework or not give homework depending on what you would prefer. Examples are different worksheets as well as different reading passages/books or other styles of homework that will be the most beneficial depending on what your child's needs and interests are.Assessment
I will do quizzes with letters and phonics and also assess reading level and fluency by having your child read passages.Class Experience
US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 1
Hello everyone! This is a one-on-one class for beginning reading (PreK-1st grade level) whether that be a child who is struggling, on-level, or advanced for their age. It is very positive and engaging with a variety of activities and movement such as songs and games. I first assess where your child is and then go from there to get your child to the next level with a systematic approach while assessing his/her progress along the way. We work on blending, decoding, sight words, and phonics, but I always make sure we spend time actually reading. We read engaging texts such as the Usborne Very First Reading series which the kids love because of the wonderful illustrations and because I read one page with harder words and then they get to read the next page which is at their level. I use a reward system for the kids and am very open to communication with parents. Don't see a time that works for you? Reach out and I can see if we can find something that works!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Minnesota Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I'm a current elementary teacher with a Kindergarten-6th grade teaching license, and I've taught for nine years. I spent five of those nine years working and an intervention teacher who directly worked with students who struggled to learn how to read and had special needs. I watched them gain confidence and move up in their reading levels. I've also worked with students who were on grade level and advanced. I've taught in person and I've also taught online as a virtual 1st grade classroom teacher and as a virtual ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) teacher. I have a degree in elementary education and a minor in Spanish. I also took some graduate courses in Special Education.
