19 Spelling lessons

Before working with Emily she was completely resistant to even trying to study her spelling words. Working with Emily has changed her perspective. She now sees that she can succeed at spelling, even if it takes her more effort than other subjects. Emily has made a personal connection with her, she looks forward to her spelling sessions and she is (almost) happy to study spelling at home. Choosing Emily as a spelling tutor has been a great decision for our family.

Session 1: July 10, 2012 We corrected the spelling of in five songs and you tutored me in the pronunciation of many words. Scheduled Session 2: July 27, 2012, 2:00 PM My suggested plan is to correct the spelling on the remaining 6 songs and continue tutoring on the pronunciation of words. I have prepared a list of words in each song that I am experiencing difficulty in pronunciation. Since our July 10 Session 1 I have been singing several of the songs on a daily basis using versions [1] and [2].

10 Spelling lessons

Margaret is a wonderful tutor! My daughter is dyslexic and had reading trouble. She was really confused with spelling words. Margaret worked with her, and in no time, my daughter began spelling much better. My daughter finally stopped asking me to help her spell every little word. Spelling correlates with fluent reading. Margaret is excellent at teaching students how to use sounds. She is a very effective tutor, and you will see results!
