In my years of teaching middle school, I have excelled at teaching reading comprehension, vocabulary, inferencing & writing. More recently, I've done of a lot research and reading on best practices in teaching foundational reading. I have a MA in Ed Policy and a graduate certificate in ESL. I have a graduate level writing ability, and can edit and coach writing at all ages. I left my teaching career where I helped students succeed at all ability levels. I have had high success rate of reading improvement with my former ELA students. I also tutored middle school students after school for the past two years. I also was a tutor my first year teaching for an upper elementary student. I miss working with kiddos and would be happy to provide references from my former school and admin.
