English 2 - Literature & Composition Level: This is an early/intermediate level English course that covers a variety of literature. Students in 9th-12th grade have successfully completed this course, as each student's level of proficiency is different. This class will touch upon various popular pieces of literature. Information will build as we proceed. During the second semester, this course will continue to reinforce critical analysis of text, synthesize ideas, understand and utilize rhetorical appeals, reinforce literary devices, determine how time periods influence writers, complete active reading, use creative thinking and writing, develop supportive arguments, write short in-class responses, write analytical style essays, and reinforce conventions of grammar and language usage. Classroom interaction and engagement will be encouraged. Students will have the opportunity to respond verbally, as well as through interaction on Nearpod slides. Students may send responses through the classroom chat; however, it is preferable for cameras to be on during class (unless otherwise arranged). Homework times will vary. Students have reported 2-5 hours per week. Feel free to contact me to determine whether this class will meet your needs. ------anchor texts are listed in the supply list section------ <<𝗦𝗨𝗣𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗔𝗟 𝗧𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗦 (𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿)>> 1.

學士學位 由 University of Cincinnati
𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲
I am a home educator with 17 years of teaching experience (ages preschool to 12th grade). During the early years, I taught and tutored local homeschool students in various subject areas. Around 8 years ago, I concentrated on teaching middle school and high school English. Then, I expanded my circle to include virtual learners in early 2020.
Because I was a learner who found it difficult to understand the writing process, I am passionate about helping learners develop their writing skills. I have a proven track record of success in teaching writing to students of varying ages and abilities. I believe that even the most reluctant writers can learn to better express themselves with the right guidance and prompting.
My experiences with my own children have given me insight into the challenge of working with different learning styles, as I have a college junior on the autism spectrum, a college sophomore with ADHD, and a gifted 11th grader. Meeting the demands of each child required a deep understanding of their individual strengths and needs, along with an adaptable mindset regarding educational strategies.
