Open, friendly, inquiry-based. I would rather sit around and talk about a book with a student and see what they think of it and help them find meaning than just tell them what it means or go over grammar worksheets. That said, I also like grammar and its intricacies.

I can recommend excellent literature for all ages, grade-levels, and abilities -- and interests! I assess the student's level of mastery by listening to parents, communicating with the student (in whatever appropriate way needed) and then doing some basic testing. Once the student is assessed, I design a learning environment and activities that coincide with the student's specific strengths, while adding some elements of challenge. I tend to work in a very focused way for 10-15 minutes, and then add in tactile activities (like Bannana Grams for example) for 10 minutes or so, in order to maintain the student's attention. Children and youth who are struggling to read and write get patient assistance to learn the words correctly. My work will improve writing techniques (including essays and basic writing skills), reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and literary creativity. For y
