This 10-week English Language Arts tutoring course, intended for fourth and fifth-grade-level students, will help them build confidence as readers and writers in a supportive small-group setting. Students will strengthen essential skills such as reading comprehension, identifying main ideas and details, making inferences, expanding vocabulary, and writing well-organized paragraphs. Each session follows a consistent structure with a brief warm-up, focused mini-lesson, guided practice, independent reading or writing time, and group discussion. Instruction is interactive and engaging, using teacher modeling, hands-on activities, educational games, visual supports, and writing workshops with constructive feedback. By the end of the course, students will show measurable improvement in their ELA skills, gain confidence, independence, and a more positive attitude toward reading and writing.
