What I Do: Individual Online Instructional Reading Support
My approach is to listen, look, and find specific issues that create problems or missed concepts that hinder my student's reading capabilities. My methodology is gentle, respectful, and exploratory in finding relief when children encounter their reading frustrations. I allow them to grow with the acceptance of their natural abilities and discover a process that works best for them.
Ultimately, my goal is to build solid foundations for my students and create happiness through self-directed learning. I teach my students to believe in their greatness so they can obtain the education they need to succeed.
