Trusted teacher: Why is writing so hard? You know what you want to say, but when you try to write down your ideas, your brain starts to hurt. Maybe you've been staring at a blank page for so long that you begin to doze off. Or perhaps you've been toiling away trying to capture your idea only to realize your paragraph seems horribly dull. Most writers wrestle with these issues but learn ways to make the writing process less painful. In this fourteen-week class, you will pick up a few tricks of the trade so you too don't have to suffer (as much). Working with both fiction and non-fiction texts, you will learn how to take notes, make outlines, give presentations, craft clear sentences, compose focused paragraphs, and edit assignments. Furthermore, your study skills will improve as you deconstruct the texts, extract important bits of information, and rewrite in your own words. As you master new tools, you will first practice them together with the whole class. Only when you feel confident, will you start independently writing your weekly assignment. If you suddenly feel stuck or frustrated, we will work through the confusion together. Note for Parents: How to Be a Writer: For Teens includes a separate sixty-minute parent session, advising how to better help your children with writing assignments. Parents are welcome to attend, but the session is not compulsory. The date will be decided once class begins. This class is based on the methods from the Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW). You can read my IEW instructor profile on their website.

Welcome to my phonics class, where young learners embark on an exciting journey through the fascinating world of phonics! This tutoring class is meticulously designed to guide children through the progressive phases of phonics, from Phase 1 to Phase 5, equipping them with the essential skills needed for reading success. Led by experienced educators, this interactive class combines structured lessons with engaging activities to make learning phonics a fun and rewarding experience. Throughout the classes, children will: Discover the Phases of Phonics: From the foundational Phase 1, focusing on listening skills and environmental sounds, to the more advanced Phase 5, exploring alternative spellings and tricky words, students will traverse through each phase at their own pace. Explore Diagraphs and Trigraphs: Children will delve into the world of diagraphs (two letters representing one sound) and trigraphs (three letters representing one sound), such as 'sh', 'ch', 'igh', and 'ear'. Through interactive exercises and examples, students will master these essential phonetic combinations. Practice Blending and Segmenting: Using a variety of fun games and activities, students will hone their skills in blending sounds together to read words and segmenting words into their individual sounds. Develop Sight Word Recognition: We'll introduce common sight words at each phase, helping students recognize them instantly to enhance reading fluency and comprehension. Build Vocabulary: Through engaging stories and word activities, children will expand their vocabulary and deepen their understanding of language. By the end of the classes, children will have acquired a solid foundation in phonics, empowering them to tackle new words with confidence and embark on a lifelong journey of reading and discovery. All materials are provided. Join us on this exciting expedition through the phases of phonics and watch your child's literacy skills flourish! *Classes can be online/ face to face at students home or tutors home*
