NOW ACCEPTING STUDENTS FOR JUNE 2025!
What Do I Teach?
My tutoring services are tailored specifically for early learners (K-2), with a focus on building strong early literacy skills. I work closely with each student to develop their phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding and encoding, vocabulary, and reading fluency, using fun and engaging activities that make learning both effective and enjoyable. By creating a supportive, interactive environment, I help young learners strengthen their reading and writing foundations, building their confidence and enthusiasm for learning.
Systematic and Explicit Instruction
My reading instruction is centered around systematic and explicit teaching methods, ensuring that each lesson builds upon the previous one in a structured, step-by-step approach. This method provides clear, direct instruction that helps students master essential reading skills, from phonics to comprehension, with a solid foundation for long-term success.
Fostering A Love For Reading
My reading instruction goes beyond skill-building by fostering a genuine love of reading. By incorporating engaging texts and creating a positive, supportive environment, I aim to inspire curiosity and excitement about reading, helping students to develop a lifelong passion for books and learning.
Engagement and Motivation
I aim to make each session enjoyable and engaging while building essential literacy skills. This approach ensures that students remain excited about learning and feel confident as they progress in their reading journey.
Evidence-Based Strategies
My reading instruction is grounded in evidence-based strategies, including the use of multi-sensory techniques, repetition, and review to reinforce learning. By focusing on blending and segmenting words, students develop strong decoding skills, while regular practice ensures long-term retention. Additionally, I emphasize the real-life application of phonics skills through engaging reading and writing activities, helping students connect their learning to everyday experiences and become confident, independent readers.
