***This class is by request, unless you see an available section. I am only able to fit a small number of private classes into my schedule, but I would LOVE to meet and work with your learner if I am able to! Please send me a message, and I'd be happy to work with you to schedule this one-time, private class for your learner. This class can be tailored to your needs, including the length of the class.  If you are interested in a shorter or longer class time, just ask!

In this private, one-time class, I will meet with your learner to provide instruction and practice for specific reading and writing skills, tailored to your learner's skill level, needs, and interests. I love getting to know my students and using their interests to try to make our time together and the lesson(s) as fun as possible! 

With this one-time class, we can meet just once or schedule as many meetings as you would like to! I do offer an ongoing private class option, so that is another choice available to you if you would like to set up regular, weekly meetings and have a consistent classroom for posts and communication. This one-time class is a great way for your child and I to get to know each other and see how my teaching styles and your child's learning styles work together. This one-time class can be used as:
--a trial class before requesting an ongoing section
--strictly a one-time class over a single, specific skill (example: one or two letters that your child is struggling with/3-5 specific sight words/practicing writing a sentence and learning sentence structure-anything that can be taught in one class time)
--a way to schedule multiple class sessions without an ongoing subscription. 

Regardless of which reason you are enrolling in this class, I am happy to meet your learner!

I love to use songs, visuals, and lots of movement in my lessons if at all possible! I love to have fun and try to engage students' interests, so parent communication prior to class is something that will make our class time together the best experience possible for your learner. Upon enrollment, I will have a post with a few questions about your learner's interests and which skills you are looking to work on. I am happy to do an informal assessment when we meet, but a general idea of what skills your learner may need help with is important for me to be able to plan accordingly.  If this will be strictly a one-time meeting, it is even more important that I receive information about your learner's needs and interests in order to plan and provide instruction for during our class time. Please know that if I do not receive any information about your learner at least 24 hours before class, our class may be used strictly as a time to get to know each other and assess possible needs. I believe parents and teachers can make a great team, and communication is so important in a child's learning. I am grateful for your support!

***I am not a reading specialist or diagnostician.  However, I am a certified teacher with classroom experience and a passion for making learning fun and adapted to students' interests and abilities!

If you have any questions before enrolling, I would be happy to answer them. Thank you for considering me as a part of your child's learning team!
