𝗖𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗨𝗽, 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗨𝗽, 𝗼𝗿 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗔𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱! Becoming a Reading Detective will give your child the skills and confidence to succeed in reading. Don't wait, get started today! Use code LEARNIPFJG3 to save $3. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗡𝗼𝘄 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀: Boost your child’s confidence and motivation. Improve their ability to understand and enjoy what they read. Prepare them for school success 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝘀: Proven strategies to build comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency. A nurturing environment where they can thrive. As students transition from learning to read to reading to learn, becoming a reading detective is critical to their reading success. In this course, students will practice reading aloud to improve fluency, expand their vocabulary through context clues, and strengthen their reading comprehension skills. Key focus areas include identifying main ideas and supporting details, making inferences, analyzing characters, exploring figurative language, understanding the author’s purpose, and more. Students are welcome to join at any time, this curriculum is designed for year-long practice. Although we revisit topics multiple times for skill reinforcement, all practice activities are different. This class is highly interactive and encourages active student participation. Each session begins with an introduction to a specific reading comprehension strategy. Following the introduction, we’ll practice the skill together using teacher-provided stories. Students will take turns reading aloud in a round-robin format, engaging with the text and answering questions. Throughout the lesson, we provide guidance on pronunciation, fluency, and effective reading techniques to support student growth. The class uses 2nd-grade reading material and is appropriate for advanced 1st graders, on-level 2nd graders, or 3rd graders needing additional support. H𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞 - We teach "Practice Makes Progress"! After each class, we send an email detailing the skill we worked on in class and a home practice worksheet. (Please make sure your class communication is turned on). We do not grade the assignment but the answers will be included for you (the parent or guardian) to assess the student at home as well. 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗖𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 – We want to be your learning partner. You will receive communication from us after the first class and at least every third class. In this communication, we will share our observations and suggestions for your student. You are welcome to reach out to us at any time. To make sure you receive the communication, check your Outschool communication settings. The teachers at Achieve Learning Partners are friendly, patient, and encouraging, and meet each student where they are academically. We help our students build the confidence needed to succeed.

𝗠𝗘𝗘𝗧 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗦
𝗣𝗔𝗜𝗚𝗘 𝗛𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗟𝗟~ Hi, I am the owner of Achieve Learning Partners, LLC. I hold a BS from the University of Kentucky and a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) from the University of Louisville. I hold an internationally recognized TESOL certification and have taught ESL to children ages 3-16.
I love teaching and I love learning. I have been in the field of education for 30 years. In those 30+ years, I have taught, substituted, and owned a Sylvan Learning Center.
As a teacher, I have taught all academic subjects for elementary-age students and study skills to middle school, high school, and college students. I put my heart and soul into my students and classes. I work hard to meet students right where they are and scaffold my teaching to test student retention and base knowledge.
I love to make learning fun and engaging while also encouraging students to use their critical thinking skills. As a mother and teacher, I know it takes a village - teacher, parent, and student and I want to be part of your village.
More about me - I am a mother of two boys. I lived on the East Coast in Jacksonville, Florida for over 30 years. However, in the summer of 2020, my husband and I became empty nesters and took off on a new adventure as his job relocated us to Colorado. We are an active family that loves exploring the outdoors and all that comes with it from the animals to the topography.
I am a lifelong learner and an avid reader but have fallen in love with audio books that I can listen to ALL the time. Therefore, you will often find me hiking and listening to a book at the same time (enjoying two of my favorite things at one time).
I hope to see you in class soon. ~ Paige

On a more personal note, I have been happily married for 15 years. As a homeschooling mom of three wonderful kids, I've got a full house that includes two furry feline friends and an energetic pup. I reside in the Sunshine State of Florida.

𝗥𝗛𝗢𝗡𝗗𝗔 𝗦𝗔𝗩𝗔𝗚𝗘 - For over 22 years, I've passionately dedicated myself to teaching, focusing on reading and math for grades K-5.

Outside of work, I'm a mother of four, and I enjoy cooking and exploring different cuisines, which brings my family together.

𝗔𝗦𝗛𝗟𝗘𝗬 𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗣𝗘𝗥 - As a former public school teacher in Ohio, I have earned a bachelor’s degree in Middle Childhood Education: Math, Language Arts, & K-12 Reading and a master’s degree in Curriculum & Instruction: Gifted & Talented Education. Over the past 10 years as an educator in both public school and virtual learning settings, I have tutored 4th through 9th Grade Math, Reading, and Writing, and I have also taught 6th and 8th Grade Math to all levels of learners, Algebra I to enriched/gifted students, and K-12 English Language Arts and Reading to international students.
As a member of the Achieve Learning Partners teaching team, I currently teach a variety of reading comprehension and fluency classes to 1st through 5th-grade learners. Additionally, I offer a variety of personalized math tutoring opportunities for middle school students through my own Outschool platform. Feel free to explore my other classes here - https://outschool.com/teachers/Ashley-Harper-2023
While teaching and tutoring, I find the greatest joy in helping students master skills they previously found challenging by providing plenty of practice, encouragement from me, and making connections to what they are learning. I love providing my students with multiple opportunities to interact with new skills while also encouraging them to select learning strategies that work best for them and connect most to them along the way. An important part of learning anything new is a positive mindset and willingness to give your very best effort as you explore and practice - I am here to help!
My continuous goal will always be to help students grow their confidence, self-awareness, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills from class to class, learn from mistakes, stretch their thinking, and learn something new!
Although much of my time is spent teaching and tutoring, outside of the classroom I love spending time with my family - my husband, our sweet baby girl, and our spunky dog - as well as enjoying family hikes, curling up with a good book, practicing yoga, and baking new recipes for my family to try!
I can't wait to meet YOU and get to know you more as an individual and a learner!
See you in class! ~ Ashley

𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗞𝗔 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗜𝗘 - I am the proud mom to 4 beautiful daughters and crazy, little dog named Sugar. I have been a primary school classroom teacher in Canada for 19 years.

𝗞𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗡 𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚 ~ Holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education from Florida Atlantic University. I am a certified elementary educator in two states. I hold PreK-5 teaching certification with an ESOL
endorsement in Ohio. In Florida, I hold K-6 teaching certification in elementary education and
K-12 certification in English for Speakers of Other Languages. I have 8 years of experience as a
general elementary classroom teacher and 15 years of experience working with children in
educational settings overall.
As a general educator, I taught kindergarten for 3 years and second grade for 5 years.
Throughout this time, I worked with students of varying needs and ability levels, including ESE
and ESOL. In my most recent role, I was department head of second grade while concurrently
teaching a gifted and enrichment cluster of 18 students. No matter what level my students start
at, my joy in teaching comes from providing students with scaffolded support and watching each student gain confidence in themselves as they progress.
My teaching style is very student-centered. I enjoy creating a class environment where students
not only feel a sense of belonging but also know that their unique perspectives and contributions
to learning are valued by myself and their peers. I make an effort to incorporate project-based
learning where I can, and allow students choice. I like to encourage students through their
frustrations as I firmly believe self-confidence and creative problem-solving skills are developed
through facing challenges, taking chances, making mistakes, and learning through them.
In addition to my work with Achieve Learning Partners, I also offer classes and tutoring for
elementary-aged students on my personal Outschool page which you can access here:
https://outschool.com/teachers/Teacher-Ms-Long
When it comes to my personal life, spending time with my family is very important to me. I also
love to spend my off time on nature walks and hikes. I am very creative and interested in science,
and I like to travel and experience other cultures. I enjoy completing puzzles and practicing both
yoga and meditation.
I am excited to support your child’s educational journey and to collaborate with you, the parents,
to foster emotional and academic growth.
Your partner in learning! ~ Kristen Long
