Students will receive individualized support to match their personalized needs and goals in reading and writing. 

Our first class will be an assessment to determine the direction of our tutoring sessions. We will discuss interests, strengths, and needs. We will also figure out goals to work on for our upcoming sessions. 

After the initial assessment, we will spend each session working on 1 to 2 goals at a time. I can design individualized lessons for learners, or they can feel free to bring assignments to work on during tutoring. 

My tutoring sessions are suitable for students enrolled in public school, private school, or homeschool programs. Formerly, I was a public school teacher, and I maintain permanent state certification through continuing education programs. Currently, I am a homeschool teacher, and I have multiple years' worth of experience teaching learners in the homeschool community.

My reading tutoring sessions address the precepts studied in the Science of Reading, including: phonics and phonemic awareness, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. When I tutor writing, I focus on original idea generation, idea development, structure, grammar and mechanics. We always start by looking at idea development in writing before focusing on grammar and mechanics. This approach helps encourage learners' creativity and motivation to write.
