Online tutoring instruction is customized to each student's strengths and needs.  It can help students improve study habits and develop critical thinking strategies.  It encourages students' independence by building confidence and success in academic areas as well as social-emotional growth.  Tutoring is open to any learner. 

I enjoy working with students with disabilities, especially students who love learning but have not had good experiences in a formal school setting. 

INDIVIDUALIZED CONTENT
I will base my instruction on the needs of the student pulling from online resources designed to help struggling or disengaged learners.  We may use online activities, work with a printed packet, play games, or use a journal to meet the learner's goals. 

IEPs, 504s, or other areas of need
I can also meet individual needs based on homeschool curriculum needs or IEPs (Individualized Education Plans). 

Homework
Students may bring their own homework with their questions and concerns. 

CLASS FORMAT
The class will begin with a greeting and a review of past concepts as applicable.  There will be approximately 15-20 minutes of new instruction with 15-20 minutes of application of material.  This may include problem sets, fill-in-the-blank, open-ended questions, games, or even sing-along videos.  Students should have a dedicated notebook and pencil for every class. 

LESSON PLANNING
Each class is scheduled for 45 minutes of instruction and may include additional homework or home practice as requested.  Students who need a shorter class time may request sessions of 30 minutes each. 

Students will be expected to have their video and audio on the entire class.  Please find a quiet area in the house to have a class.  Parents may be nearby but should remain offscreen per Outschool policy. 

I am also a preferred provider in Florida for the Gardiner Scholarship as well as a provider through ESA funds.
