Having a good foundation with parts of speech and sentence structure is an important aspect of English Language Arts. I can aid in the personal learning process in grammar by assessing where you need to strengthen your skills. I like to connect my lessons to real life examples to make communication excel.

I have such a great passion for teaching literature from Pre-K-12th grade. All genres of text can provide you with a wealth of information and take you on a variety of adventures. There are many comprehension strategies that I can use to help my student understand all elements of literature. Analyzing literature teaches critical thinking skills using evidence from the text.

As a Reading Specialist, I know the importance of knowing how to spelling words affects the comprehension of the reading process. I am a huge advocate in teaching phonics in regards to spelling lessons. Teaching the various rules of spelling in a fun, interactive way is a proactive way for students to remember and apply spelling in writing and reading. Multiple ways are given for students to practice and also reviewing spelling rules on an ongoing basis.
