Grammar

Grammar is the structure of our language. As an upper elementary school teacher I found that most of my students were extremely weak in grammar. Since good writing is dependent on good grammar understanding, many students need outside help. I am experienced in both independent grammar instruction and imitative sentence composing methods. Systematic instruction can make a difference in writing performance!

Reading

Reading is foundational to all academic learning. As an elementary school teacher, I treasured the opportunity to share my love of reading with my students. Although comprehension can be difficult for many students, skilled instruction can enable a child to gain confidence and understanding. I have the tools and skill to smooth the way to success.

Writing

As a certificated elementary teacher, I know how difficult it is to find the time in the full curriculum to give individualized feedback and specialized assistance to each student in the classroom. Many gifted teachers provide excellent writing instruction but do not have adequate time to interact with each child. As a writing specialist I am able to give consistent and specific feedback to your child at every point in the writing process. Whether brainstorming topical ideas, organizing material... Read More

English

If your child is underperforming in any area of language arts, I can help. For twelve years I have succeeded at increasing student understanding in reading, grammar, spelling, writing, and oral presentation.

Careful assessment of your child's current performance level and learning style establish the proper starting point for remediation or extension. In addition to providing skilled... Read More

ESL/ESOL

In California, cross cultural and English language development training is part of the teacher certification in elementary education. During my twelve years teaching in California, I have taught English language learners of every proficiency level. I also have developed useful skills in communicating with the parents of my ESL students. I have many materials and activities that stimulate learning for both adults and children.

In addition to my skills as a writing teacher, I am currently... Read More

Proofreading

Excellent writing requires many skills as well as creative ideas. Mastering the combination of appropriate tone, impeccable grammar, and logical word flow, come through a great deal of time and careful editing. As an experienced writing specialist, I can provide direct editing of your written product or assistance in gaining the tools to polish your own work. Let your writing express clearly and meaningfully your great ideas!

Elementary Math

If your child is struggling with math, I can help. Over twelve years I have assisted a wide range of students; from children who struggle to master basic math concepts through gifted students who need challenge and extension. Beneficial change always begins with accurate assessment. As a classroom teacher, I understand the lesson objectives in your child's homework and can provide remediation when needed and extension when appropriate. Determining whether your child learns best through hands-on... Read More
