In this class, students will learn about Madam C.J. Walker. She is one of the first African American millionaires in American history. Students will learn about her resilience and her drive to succeed. They will learn how she helped the black hair industry by producing and selling her own hair products. I will teach them about her early life, her entrepreneurship, her hardships and the impact she made in the black culture. We will discuss how she inspires people today to be creative, to work hard for what they want, and to help others. Students will be encouraged to express their thoughts, opinions and ask questions. This class will be fun and informative.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from University of North Florida
Hello, I'm Zhane, and I am passionate about teaching Black History, African American and Asian American history every day of the year! If you have specific preferences regarding the time or day for our class, please feel free to message me.
I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Communications from the University of North Florida, and I recently obtained my TESOL certification. For the past 4 years, I have been teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) online to kids. Additionally, I have over four years of experience teaching ethnic history. Working with children brings me great joy, and I have also been practicing photography for over 10 years, specializing in children, dance, and model/fashion photography.
I strongly believe that learning should be enjoyable, interactive, and effective. Each child is unique, and I take pleasure in tailoring my teaching approach to their individual needs. As a teacher, I am friendly, caring, and respectful, always valuing my students' growth and well-being. On a personal note, I am a proud mother of a three year-old toddler and a 7 month old. I enjoy going hiking with my husband.
I am also the editor of a magazine that celebrates the talents of children internationally.
I look forward to having you join my class soon, where we can learn and have fun together!)
