Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 10
Beginner - Advanced Level
In this class, students will improve their writing skills, and overall confidence in English Language Arts. Each session is tailored to the individual student’s needs, with specific focus areas based on their grade level and goals.

Example Topics:

Reading Comprehension: We will break down texts together, focusing on identifying the main ideas, making inferences, and summarizing content. 

Writing Structure and Clarity: We will work on organizing ideas logically, developing paragraphs, and improving grammar and sentence fluency.

Building Vocabulary: Using context clues, we’ll learn strategies for understanding new words and incorporating them into writing and speaking.

Creative Writing: Students will practice expressing themselves through creative writing exercises, focusing on story elements like setting, characters, and conflict.

Teaching Style:

I use a student-led, interactive approach, ensuring each student feels comfortable and engaged. We’ll combine hands-on activities, games, and discussions to make learning fun and meaningful.

Before class, please send more details on what your child is struggling with and what you'd like to see them improve. We're also excited to work with gifted children who would like enrichment in creative writing, advancing their skills, and writing essays for college acceptance!

Mz. Marianna, Math and Reading Tutor
Expert reading and writing Tutors with experience working with Dyslexia, Orton-Gillingham, Multi-Sensory, and Common Core Curriculums. 

Specialized Topics:

Reading Comprehension: I focus on teaching students strategies to extract key ideas, infer meaning, and summarize texts effectively. We work through fiction and non-fiction to enhance analytical skills and critical thinking.

Writing Mechanics: My expertise includes improving sentence structure, grammar, punctuation, and paragraph development. I help students learn to write with clarity, precision, and flow in both creative and academic writing.

Vocabulary Development: Through context-based exercises and word analysis, I specialize in helping students expand their vocabulary. This helps them not only understand texts better but also improve their written and oral communication.

Multi-sensory Learning Techniques: For students with ADHD, dyslexia, or other learning challenges, I utilize the Orton-Gillingham approach and other multi-sensory methods. These methods focus on engaging multiple senses in learning, allowing students to understand and retain information better.

Teaching Methods:

Interactive and Student-Centered Learning: I believe in tailoring lessons to each student's unique needs and learning style. Students actively participate in lessons through discussions, games, and hands-on activities.

Gamified Learning: I incorporate elements of game-based learning, especially using platforms like Roblox to make concepts more engaging and memorable. This approach turns learning into an adventure, building confidence and retention.

Socratic Method: I encourage critical thinking through dialogue, asking questions that guide students toward discovering answers on their own. This builds independence and boosts problem-solving skills.

Positive Reinforcement: I make sure that students feel motivated by celebrating their achievements, no matter how small, building their self-confidence and encouraging a love for learning.

These methods and topics come together to provide an engaging, supportive, and individualized learning experience, helping students progress and feel more confident in their abilities.
