Hello! I believe in an energetic approach to teaching. I like a sweet marriage of noise and structure in my classroom. Your child will be making letter sounds and joyfully playing with play-dough as we create several alphabet letters. Just as they would in a traditional classroom setting, they can raise their hand to speak. I will occasionally mute participants just so that each child has the chance to truly be heard. I love teaching phonics and letter names. This class is truly designed as a play time with a simple and fun introduction to letter names and sounds. I am keeping this class duration time at 15 minutes as the attention span of 3 and 4 year old students is limited. So, feel free to sign up again and again. I cannot cover all 26 letters in 15 minutes. So, it is quite possible to sign up multiple times and learn new letters each time. Who doesn't love playing with play-dough. Please come and ABCDough with me! ~Teacher Kender

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Teacher Kender! I obtain the following: BA in theatre, early childhood certification, elementary certification grades 1-6, and a master's degree in elementary reading. The most fun I have while teaching is when I can combine the two. I love digging into books and exploring the characters. I always read with crazy expression and sound effects. My read alouds are exciting and fun! I can teach your child to read, and I can teach them how to perform well in an audition. My available classes list will vary because of my love of the theatre and my passion for lower elementary. I was a classroom teacher for six years. All six of those years were spent teaching first grade. I taught ESL online for 5 years, and I have been teaching a variety of classes on Outschool since the summer of 2020. It is my philosophy that more is caught than taught. So, being a good example for your children is key. Surrounding them with others who instill respect, knowledge, and common sense is vital. Finding a teacher who can bring information to them in an exciting and fun way so that it sticks for a lifetime... that is priceless. Let's do this! See you in the classroom.
***NOTE: I will always teach. If the class has one student, I will still teach!***
