Description

In order to minimize learning gaps left through traditional education, we have created a new literacy learning experience in which students meet regularly with our talented instructor to build competency in foundational areas of literacy, such as phonics, vocabulary, and reading comprehension by incorporating each area of the brain in the learning process.

Students will receive multi-sensory instruction in spelling, writing fluency, and grade-level sight words through activities designed with your student in mind. With the multi-sensory approach that focuses on establishing a deep understanding of sight words, students will be able to make dramatic improvements in their reading, writing, and spelling in a short amount of time while also setting them up for success in upper-grade levels. Even more exciting is that your student will be able to interact with other students and celebrate their learning in a fun environment where all types of learners can thrive. We believe that our Literacy Leaders class is the next stop on your student’s way to the top of the class!

  • Associate visuals and sounds with vocabulary

Denny says:

The topics for debate were very interesting and kids enjoyed discussing their points. Sam is very engaging and ensures kids are having fun while learning about debates. Very informative class, I definitely recommend any classes taught by Sam.

Yellari says:

Mr. Sam is an excellent teacher. He provides feedback and encourages the students. He enjoys his students and engages every student in a positive way. He gets them involved in reading along with him, asks questions to see if they are understanding what they are reading, engages them in discussions, and explains the meaning of the words. He prepares his classroom material for public speaking classes and makes the classroom so joyful for kids. He assigns work to kids and gives them his feedback for their improvements. I would highly recommend his classes. My child says, \" Mr. Sam is the best!\"

It’s a great class that introduces kids to debating. My kid said it is fun and loved it!

This was an exciting class. My daughter had a great experience. She learned about how to fashion an effective argument but also started learning the difference between high-quality and low-quality evidence.Sam challenged the kids... he did not baby them and provided constructive criticism.

The instructor made the class fun while still allowing the kids to learn the basics of debate; it was well-organized, and informative.

Sam is patient, detail-oriented and a strict enough teacher. Your children will get a lot of knowledge and become more confident in debating. My child thought it was awesome! We got to know new people and learn new skills for debating. The teacher was very nice and entertaining guy who made us laugh now and then. I personally LOVED it!!!

Neelam says:

This class was interesting and engaging. I am pleasantly surprised with the results. I think all parents should give it a try.

Tamara says:

Sam, is great with the kids! He made them laugh and kept them engaged! My son enjoyed the class. I feel like it would have been more beneficial if it was a weekly class for a few more weeks. But I do feel like it was a very good class for him.

Pamela says:

My son has been homeschooled since 4 years old and has never been to public school. The class gave him somewhat of a classroom experience with kids similar around his age. Most classes that he has taken didn’t require him to participate, but this one did. This made him very nervous, but it also boosted his confidence. The instructor has excellent teaching skills. I really liked how he engaged students and he also had excellent communication skills. He gave great accommodations which boosted my son’s confidence even more than before! A great addition to boost student learning in addition to regular schooling. Excellent addition for students who are homeschooled like my son.

Daveron says:

The instructor is incredible with the children. His classes are always enjoyable and informative. We’ve taken a few of his classes now, and he is one of our favorites. My son really likes him. Highly recommend him for his humor and ability to keep each child’s attention while challenging them.

Julia says:

My child loved this class. Sam was very engaging. My child’s ability to clearly talk and present information improved significantly after these lessons. My child said that Sam was an excellent and funny teacher. He made lots of difficult topics a fun learning experience.

Van says:

Mr. Sam is an outstanding teacher. He makes insightful feedback and encourages my child to build up his confidence in giving a speech. He also gives his students challenging assignments and provides them feedback for improvements. My son has a great time in Mr. Sam\'s class. His classes fill up quickly. He is truly a gifted teacher who inspires his students to excel. My son is still going to take Mr. Sam\'s public speaking classes. I strongly recommend Mr. Sam’s classes. Thank you Mr. Sam!

Cemil says:

My son enjoyed the class and learned a lot. He wants to take more classes with Mr. Sam. Mr. Sam was kind and he accepted the way my son prepared.
