“Hurricane Prep’s Tutoring Services is a one on one/small group experience for those students looking to improve their skills in the area of creative writing and/or response to literature writing.
“From shared reading, students will get a chance to generate their own meanings as they read and compose from their own thoughts as they write. The intent is to have students grow as readers and writers by requiring them to use their own background knowledge to construct personal meaning and encourage, in writing, the integration of new experiences with past ones.
