Reading is the foundation for learning

About Us
Background
- Our lead teachers are certified Early Elementary Teachers that have been teaching for over 15 years, we range from K to 5th grade.
- All of our teachers have received Masters Degrees in Education and are trained in Preventing Academic Failure (an Orton Gillingham approach)
Our Expertise
- Our expertise is teaching children to read based on a daily phonemic approach. Learning and knowing letter sounds eventually lead to blending and being able to sound out words and reading fluency.
- We also work on reading comprehension for grades 3-5 (both fiction and non-fiction).
- We can also work with the students on filling in what they are missing because of COVID-19.
Book Clubs
"The greatest gift is a passion for reading"
- Elizabeth Hardwick
- Does your child love to read, or need that extra push to read more?
- Teacher4kids is offering weekly after-school book clubs for students in grades 2-5 (group size limited to 4).
- A fun way to incorporate comprehension, character development, making inferences, and increasing vocabulary. And, to make some new friends.
- Please contact us for more information.
Individual Virtual Tutoring
- We work with your child 3-4 times a week for 30-45 minutes either virtually or in person (all safety protocols in place).
- We will individualize students lessons based on their needs.
- We will also set aside time at the end of each lesson for a Read Aloud.
