About The Tutor
I’m Lisa Dixon, founder of Ready Minds Learning Academy. I am a certified Elementary School teacher with a Specialist in English as a Second Language and a background in English Literature.
I taught Kindergarten and Grade One in public school for 15 years and have been teaching ESL (English as a second language), also in public school, for 10 years. I also taught for just over one year at an English Language Institute in South Korea. I achieved a high engagement and thus a high success rate with my online students during the pandemic as I mastered skills in online teaching. These invaluable experiences inspired me to launch my own online tutoring business.
I specialize in GRADE ONE AND TWO READING WITH A STRONG PHONICS FOCUS, based on CURRENT RESEARCH. I teach homeschooled students, private and public school students, and English language learners who need help with DECODING AND FLUENCY.
In my spare time, you may find me taking road trips with my husband and two daughters, learning foreign languages, and volunteering for charity. Otherwise, I’m curling up on the living room couch with my cat, watching the latest episode of a new foreign drama, or planning the next family vacation.
FAQ
How do I get started with tutoring?
Simply book a consultation and share your academic goals for your child. I will quickly assess your child, devise a personalized learning plan, and place your child in the right group.
Can I modify my tutoring schedule?
No. You cannot make changes to your tutoring sessions. Your child will be placed in a group based on information from our consultation, including your choice of lesson times. Since students are grouped based on goals and needs, it would be hard to make changes once we get started.
What is your policy on session cancellations?
Consistent attendance is crucial to the success of this program. If you miss a session, a video review of what we learned will be posted in our learning space for your child to access. Content from the previous lesson is always reviewed in subsequent lessons.
How does tutoring session billing work?
You have three options. You can save by paying in full, but if that is not feasible, you can make two or three payments.
Why do you only offer an online group tutoring model?
Consistent attendance is easier with online learning. With all of our learning tools available online through our Google Classroom, your child will be able to log in from anywhere. You won’t be concerned about traffic jams and parking problems making you late for your child’s session.
What type of tutoring services do you offer?
I only offer reading tutoring services at the elementary level. I aim to solve the literacy crisis and can only do this by specializing in the solution, effective phonics instruction.
