Weekly tutoring for English Reading and Writing We can follow the schedule below, or for a more customized approach, I can develop an individualized plan for a learner. Each week we will cover a different writing topic. We'll go at a pace that works best for the student. Topics are: Week of February 1&2: This week I'll have kids write 2 paragraphs on any topic they choose. I'll use this as a writing test to see which areas they need to work on. - This week kids will work on writing paragraphs including different kinds of topic sentences and conclusion sentences.

Orientación para padres
Students will occasionally need to do some research for their writing. This can include books, encyclopedias, and online sources. Parental supervision is recommended. I will also monitor sources kids use.
Kids can use Microsoft Word, Google Docs or any other Word Processing Tool to write their assignments.
Lista de útiles escolares
Students will need paper, pencil or pen, occasional handouts, Google Docs, and Google Slides. They will not need every one of these items every week. I will post needed supplies in the classroom a day prior to class.

I love working with kids! I have 14 years of teaching experience, and I have taught in both traditional school settings and as a homeschool parent. I am passionate about helping kids at all levels of their reading and writing journey. It's so exciting when I see a student gain confidence as a reader/writer or when I can help a young aspiring writer achieve their dreams.
My writing experience includes writing copy for marketing materials, ghost writing for corporate executives, technical writing, writing newspaper articles, and writing instructions for digital technology applications. Managing a corporate internal newsletter was one of my favorite projects. I created the newsletter design, interviewed and wrote articles about team members, and managed the editing and submission process for all the contributors. As a hobby, I love to write short stories, poetry, and songs. I can't imagine my life without writing.
My education includes a BA in Communications and a Master of Science in Technical and Professional Communication (MSTPC). Because I have completed 2 years of my BA and all of my MS classes online, I am skilled with the various aspects of online learning. I love using what I have learned to help kids become better at reading and writing.
