My comments on tutoring Reading : I have experience working with elementary age children in learning to read using phonics and sight reading. Children are not being taught basic phonics and, therefore, are struggling with reading basic words. I use a phonics curriculum called, "Phonics Pathways". I will analyze your child's knowledge of basic phonics and decide where to start.
I prefer a hybrid teaching style. If a standard teaching style was working for the student then they most likely would not need tutoring.
I have taught Early Childhood Education since 2000 to 2002 at Angel Academy Preschool. Later, I worked with children through the Y.M.C.A of Port Huron, Michigan and Lenawee County, Michigan. I helped school age children with homework in the afternoons and during the day taught preschool. While attending junior College I tutored students struggling with math. After graduating college I began substitute teaching in Michigan for elementary school children. I became a mother in 2011 and stayed home with my children for a few years, and then went back to substituting. In 2016, I earned my certification in Missouri and have worked with preschool age and elementary age children for the past 4.5 years.
