Classes that I offer
Learning with Structure, Heart, and a Little Bit of Fun
Every class at Mrs. Emily Teaches is designed to help children build skills, confidence, and curiosity — whether they’re reading their first chapter book, exploring history hands-on, or discovering how math connects to real life.
With small-group settings, individualized attention, and creative lessons, students learn in ways that make sense to them. Parents can rest easy knowing their child is growing both academically and emotionally — one class at a time.
Reading Groups
Helping hesitant readers become confident learners
My reading groups help children grow from hesitant readers into confident, fluent ones. With a balance of phonics review, guided reading, and engaging stories, students strengthen comprehension, build vocabulary, and discover the joy of reading—all in a supportive small-group setting.
Available Groups:
Emerging Readers: Reading through “The Bad Guys” books — Mondays at 12 PM Alaska / 1 PM Pacific
Intermediate Readers: Reading through “The Secret Garden” — Mondays at 8 AM Alaska / 9 AM Pacific
Math Detectives
Crack the code to math confidence
In Math Detectives, students investigate challenging math problems with curiosity and creativity. Through hands-on activities, puzzles, and real-world scenarios, they learn to think critically, explain their reasoning, and strengthen essential math skills in a fun, encouraging way.
We use games for fact review and focus on a new math skill each month.
Schedule:
Wednesdays at 8 AM Alaska / 9 AM Pacific
Now through the summer will be focusing on Fractions!
When Math Homework Feels Hard
If math time has become frustrating, tense, or full of tears, you’re not alone.
This free guide will help you understand what’s really happening when your child gets stuck — and how to respond in a way that protects their confidence and keeps learning positive.
Small shifts can make a meaningful difference.
