Academic Support: Reading, Writing, Critical Thinking, History

While coursework varies from grade to grade, English classes expose students to a variety of literature forms, including plays, novels, short stories, and poetry. History classes require students to read primary and secondary sources, as well as graphs, charts, and political cartoons.

Reading

Michelle has tools to get non-readers to engage and even enjoy reading, as well as strategies to challenge the most competent readers. Students learn and practice scientifically proven habits of good readers to deepen their critical thinking and analysis skills while reviewing texts. 

Homework help and extracurricular challenges are available depending on student needs.

Writing

Michelle provides personalized instruction to students so they can build confidence alongside their skills. Students learn to feel less overwhelmed and less likely to procrastinate by chunking assignments and using time management strategies.

Critical Thinking

Today's students explore too much information in very short periods of time, making it challenging for them to think deeply. Ms. Sale offers sets of questions, sentence starters, and mindfulness techniques to build and develop a much-needed skill.

History

Michelle reviews and teaches global and American history by making the content relevant to today. Her interest in cultures and travel spark excitement in even the most reluctant students. From time management plans, reviewing content, increasing reading and comprehension capabilities, and standardized test preparation, students struggling in their social studies or history courses will develop what they need to succeed.
