Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 6
Intermediate Level
In this personalized 1-on-1 reading comprehension and novel study class, learners will explore engaging, age-appropriate literature or short reading passages while developing essential critical thinking and reading skills. 

Each private session is tailored to the student’s reading level, interests, and pace, creating a safe and supportive environment where young readers build confidence and fluency.

Three options:
1. Select a novel and read assigned chapters to discuss in class
2. I will share short passages during class to read and practice comprehension skills
3. Combination of both

📚 If you choose to select a novel to examine, each class begins with a quick check-in on the assigned reading, followed by an in-depth literature discussion focused on:

✅Understanding the plot 
✅Character development and motivations
✅Setting and its influence on the story
✅Point of view and perspective
✅Figurative language and literary devices
✅Vocabulary

      Students will strengthen their vocabulary skills, make text-based inferences, and explore key themes and messages in the book. To assess comprehension in a fun and low-pressure way, each session ends with a brief Kahoot quiz, shared through a link in the chat.

      If you choose to read short passages shared in class, learners will work on comprehension skills such as but not limited to :

✅ identifying genre
✅ author's purpose
✅main idea and details
✅making inferences
✅ point of view 
✅figurative language
✅tone and mood
✅text structure
✅ poems intrepreting and rhyming patterns
✅ summarizing
✅ context clues

This class is highly interactive and encourages learners to express opinions and connect personally to the text. Whether your child is a reluctant reader or an avid book lover, this class offers the tools and encouragement to grow as a thoughtful, engaged, and confident reader.
    Perfect for homeschoolers, enrichment, or extra help outside of school — this is more than just tutoring; it’s a space for students to discover the joy of reading!

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Georgia Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
As a licensed teacher for over 30 years, I have had the opportunity to support and engage students with diverse learning needs.   I strive to inspire a lifelong love of reading in every student. My approach is supportive, encouraging, and student-centered. I seek to understand each learner’s unique needs and adapt my teaching to fit their learning style. I’m intuitive and responsive, creating a safe, engaging space where students feel confident to participate, ask questions, and grow. My goal is not only to improve reading skills but also to build self-esteem and foster curiosity through meaningful discussions and connections to the text.
      My passion is literature. I believe stories make concepts more palpable to children. Stories teach students valuable lessons, empathy, and give them the ability to see the world from different perspectives. 
      When I have time, I like to travel, experience different cultures, and learn the history of people and places. I am also an animal lover! I have two dogs, have worked with animal rescues, and fostered cats and dogs for years. 
      
"There are many little ways to enlarge your child's world, and the love of books is the best of all." ~ Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
