About the lesson

Lessons will depend on your needs. If you are working on a specific assignment, for instance, a lesson might include any of the following:
--Reviewing and discussing the assignment specifications
--Creating a plan for completing the assignment; this would include breaking it into tasks and deadlines as needed
--Working with brainstorming materials and graphic organizers if needed (I can create these)
--Drafting (if you need one-on-one help to generate writing)
--Discussing your work; I will provide helpful feedback on content, organization, style, and grammar
--Revising and editing

If you are seeking to improve your reading and/or writing skills more generally, a lesson may include:
--Completion of writing prompts as a diagnostic tool
--Discussing and reflecting on your reading and writing successes and challenges in the past
--You reading aloud so that I can hear where you may be struggling
--Reading and discussing texts together
--Completion of short or medium-length tasks I will design to build reading and writing skills
