개인 독서 튜터 1:1 독서, 음성학, 시각 단어, 이해와 함께하는 재미

Hello Parents and Caregivers! 
I am very excited to be with Outschool and I would like to tell you a little about myself.  I am honored that you took the time to read this information and are considering entrusting your learner in my classes. I taught in public schools for 27 years and for the last 3 years I have been teaching students ESL online all over the world. I am a certified and licensed teacher with a BS in Elementary Education and a concentration in early childhood. I taught all subjects in elementary classes K-6 but for more years in kindergarten-2nd grades. After I received my Master's Degree in Library Science and Information Skills, for the last 18 years in public education, I taught all grade levels from Preschool- 5th-grade. The students were taught reading and information skills, Internet Safety, and all about books. I checked out hundreds of books weekly while I was the media specialist-librarian.
I am certified and hold a TESOL Certificate from an International known school. I started working with English as Second Language (ESL) students when the university I attended allowed me to travel over a thousand miles to McAllen, Texas to do three weeks of student teaching in a bilingual school setting. I was able to teach many afterschool and summer programs with ESL students in the public school setting. 
I am a patient and kind teacher and I love to praise and congratulate the students on all their successes in class.  I endeavor to establish an atmosphere in my classroom that provides all students the following: they feel loved, and safe, and are with a teacher who sincerely cares about their education and learning. I have high expectations for all students. I do not put a lid on their learning and I try to take them as far as I can in my classes. I have witnessed many of my 3 and 4-year-olds after they complete my Preschool-Kindergarten Prep class, excel in their reading. 
I love to teach children and share my passion for learning with these precious students. In my classes, the students will be involved in fun and engaging activities I have created and prepared. Whatever age group of children I am teaching, I try to instill in students a love for learning by creating an environment that is exciting and fun! 
I have created the following classes with your children in mind! For a beginner reader who knows most letters and sounds, I recommend taking my ongoing courses in the following order starting with the first class below the Preschool and Kindergarten Preparation Class, unless this is the class you are looking for: (Feel free to copy and paste the class information below or you can go directly to the class links). I hope to see your child in one of my classes!

3. This class covers the Long Vowels and Silent e (CVCe) word families:  In this class, many new vocabulary words are introduced. A comprehension activity is sent to the families after the lesson has been taught. The parent has the option to print and use this to reinforce the learning of the vocabulary from the lesson.

This class is often taken after the above Short Vowels CVC word families class but is not required.

6. High-Frequency Sight words class (Level 1): In this class, the students do a lot of independent reading. We cover 5 of the 100 High-Frequency Sight words weekly. I do not do the reading for the students like in the Preschool & Kindergarten Preparation class. I try to let the strongest readers lead the sentences but I will help correct pronunciation and help with words if they need me to. This is a very popular class.

8. Beginner ESL: In this class, the students will learn to read, pronounce, and write words for each letter of the alphabet. This is an excellent class for English as Second Language students.
