私人輔導閱讀語言藝術

In this 1:1 reading language arts class, we will read and discuss excellent novels to strengthen students' reading comprehension skills. First, we choose a novel to read, discuss, and analyze together. Personalized instruction tailored to meet each student's needs allows learners to progress at their own pace. Literature is invaluable for learners in gaining knowledge and feeling understood. Through universal themes such as family, friendship, loyalty, and empathy, books help readers connect with others and themselves. 
    
     Students will be engaged in each meeting discussing the chapters assigned for class. Learners will examine literary elements, including plot, characters, setting, point of view, figurative language, and vocabulary, to better understand the book. 
  
     I also provide activities in the classroom to extend and reinforce your learning experience. Students may play a fun interactive Kahoot at the end of each class to assess text comprehension. 

Other skills that may be addressed in these meetings are grammar, vocabulary, spelling, and writing!

Please message me if you'd like more information or would like to request a class time to suit your schedule.

    Just so you know, classes are charged on the Sunday before the lesson. If you need to skip a week, kindly let me know before the charge goes through on Sunday. I would be happy to cancel class for that week, and you will not be charged.  For last-minute changes, I am usually able to offer a make-up lesson (pending availability) with at least 24 hours notice.
