閱讀或數學的私人輔導

I will carefully structure each lesson to meet the individual needs of your child, directly teaching the specific skills the child needs to be successful in reading, spelling, or math. I will review skills, as needed, so that the child can gain a solid foundation and understanding of the material presented.  Each lesson will follow the same format, helping the child to feel secure and gain confidence. In each lesson, there will be a warm-up, a review of skills previously taught, and a new skill introduced and practiced.  During the first two sessions, I will informally assess the student.  That information will then be used to create a program that is tailored to their specific needs.  The program will be multi-sensory, so visual, auditory, and kinesthetic approaches will be employed simultaneously throughout each lesson.  For example, information will be presented visually and auditorily, but I will also demonstrate and incorporate table writing, arm tapping, sky writing, finger spelling, the use of manipulatives and many other interactive modes of learning.  I will implement the "I do, we do, you do" teaching method in each lesson to ensure understanding.   Parental feedback is welcome and changes to lesson content and format can be easily made upon parent request.
