The students will need to spend 45 - 60 mins preparing the arguments for the debate in the second lesson.Class Experience
In this class, I will teach my students why video games can become very easy to get addicted to and ways to get over a video game addiction. Symptoms of video game addiction: Are playing more than 1 hour of video games a day? Are they becoming isolated from family and friends? Are they lying to others about how often they play video games, and do they often play in secret? Do they become upset and irritable when they’re not playing video games? Are they neglecting work or school to play video games? Are they avoiding activities they once enjoyed? Are they skipping meals to focus on gaming? Are they often tired because they’re not getting enough sleep? Did you say yes to any of these? If so, you need this class fast! The research will be provided from peer-review papers and research journals to prove how video games can have addictive qualities and the other side effects they can have on the mind and body if spent too long playing them. My students will also be taught a number of ways they are able to limit the time that they play themselves and use their time more productively. The second lesson includes a debate among the children where they are able to use the information they learnt in the first lesson and consolidate what they have learnt whilst also questioning the findings and reliability of the research. If your child does not want to take part in the debate, then there is a single lesson where they are just given the information provided in the first lesson. Please note: *If you do not see a time or date listed for a class that interests you, please message me with a few possible dates and times, and I will do my best to offer a session that will work for your schedule.

If the minimum amount of students is not reached 24 hours before the start of the course, students will be moved to the next available section at a similar time. *Once a learner has been verified per OS policy, this is a camera optional class. *For parents/families who feel their child would benefit from this course, but their budget does not allow for it, I do offer a number of discounts for families of lower income.
