“You have made such an impact on my life.”
Beyond the Academics
A session with me is all about one child and only one.
Yours.
My goal is for each child to look for, strive for, and experience success!
A child’s learning is fluid. Individualized instruction allows me to be flexible with your child and you. By engaging with your child, I am given great insight into how they learn, their individual strengths and struggles, what makes them giggle, and what causes frustration. My time with your child is a wonderful opportunity to zero in and give them wraparound support and individualized instruction.
Specific academic goals are important. Equally important are certain truths and qualities I hope to instill in each child:
- a knowledge of their many gifts
- self motivation
- a sense of accomplishment
- confidence in themselves and their abilities
A lesson plan is always involved in each session and depending on our goals and your child, our session may be very structured or involve quite a bit of flexibility. My approach is a fully interactive experience with immediate feedback whether we are reading a passage in a chapter book, working through long division, decoding multi-syllable words, or writing a summary of a chapter!
A session may include:
- test taking strategies
- relaxation techniques
- managing distractions
- goal setting
- time management and organizational skills (the earlier, the better!)
I would love to work with you and your child and help them be all that they can be!
