Hello! My name is Coree, and I am passionate about helping young learners build confidence and success in reading and literacy.
I currently support first-grade students at Cranbrook Brookside School, where I work with children on foundational literacy skills including phonemic awareness, phonics, reading fluency, spelling, handwriting, and comprehension. I have experience using evidence-based literacy programs such as UFLI Foundations and Heggerty and regularly work with students in small-group and individualized learning settings.
In addition to my current first-grade experience, I have worked as a preschool lead teacher and substitute teacher, giving me experience supporting children across a range of developmental and academic levels. I especially enjoy helping beginning readers build strong foundations and develop confidence in their abilities.
My teaching style is patient, encouraging, and structured. I believe children learn best when they feel successful and supported. Whether a student needs help with beginning reading, strengthening phonics skills, improving handwriting, building spelling skills, or maintaining progress over the summer, I work to make learning engaging while meeting each child at their individual level.
My goal is not only to improve academic skills but also to help children develop confidence and a positive attitude toward learning.
