PRIVATE BOOKINGS

Private Instruction from Phonics for Reading, Writing, and Spelling taught by the curriculum author.

If your child is out of the age range for this class, and you'd still like to reserve a spot, please message me.


 CLASS OVERVIEW

This private class features the Phonics for Reading, Writing, and Spelling Curriculum, and is taught by the curriculum author.
The class will be "jam-packed" with phonics instruction and tailored to the understanding of your child.  
The student will practice and solidify new sounds through reading and interactive activities.    
Instruction will be fun, colorful, and focused on your child.  

Students will work through phonogram flashcards.  
They will work on their "sounding-out" skills, and be led through spelling activities focused on any phonograms that they need help with.
They will practice guided reading activities, as well as student-led reading activities.  
Phonograms will be solidified for the student in order to give them the tools they need for independent reading.

An after-class worksheet will be provided at the end of each class.

My teaching style is welcoming, kind, and patient, so students always feel right at home.

In this private class, your child may be permitted to write/fill in answers on the screen at the teacher's discretion (ie. as long as it is beneficial and not a distraction).  This, of course, is only if you choose to let your child do so from your end.
