Class Experience
In this course that meets twice per week (ongoing), you'll first learn the basics and then move on to more writing challenges. Here is what we'll cover from the beginning: Class 1: -You'll learn how to write your name first! -Then, how to read and use a formation guide -We'll work on writing your name until you're happy with the results Class 2: -We'll write the entire lower case alphabet along with tricky letter connections -After this, we'll work on upper case letters that look tricky to learn on your own Class 3: -We'll work more on whatever needs more work - this usually ends up being letter formation and letter connections -Tricky connections are the b, v, o, and w, so we'll work on those to help you remember Class 4: -I'll do my best to help you remember everything you learned, so I'll ask you to write your name by memory -Also, we'll review any tricky upper case letters This is what you can expect in the "Classroom" after every class: -A summary of what we did in class, what's up next, as well as homework -At the beginning of every class except the first, I'll ask to see your homework so I can check it, so be sure to have it ready! -If you don't do the homework, you're not in trouble! I give homework because I want to do a good job, and the more you use cursive, the faster you'll progress

I've taught my own original curriculum at a high-end private training school for six years, and now I'm working independently to offer my courses online! I have an Honors Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and am TESOL Certified.
I value students learning by having fun and connecting to stories both academically and through life experience. I'm also a lover of debates! I believe in encouraging students to hone their existing strengths and interests to thrive in an academic environment.
I've taught everything from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to 1984, but my ultimate favorite to teach is anything Harry Potter! Critical thinking is also another one of my favorite things to teach.
