Dive into the extraordinary life and legacy of Muhammad Ali, one of the most iconic figures in sports history and the Civil Rights Movement. This engaging class will explore how Ali's achievements in boxing and his courageous activism, including his views on the Vietnam War, made a lasting impact on society.

In this class, students will engage with honest and straightforward historical content, presented in an age-appropriate manner. I prioritize transparency and truthfulness, ensuring that history is accurately represented. The class is designed to be interactive, with ample opportunities for students to participate in discussions, share their thoughts, and ask questions. While participation is encouraged, it is not mandatory. Please note that the class may extend beyond 30 minutes to allow for meaningful dialogue and individual contributions. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to reach out.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from University of North Florida
As an ESL Teacher and Tutor, I have taught classes on African American history, American Figures, Racism, and the civil rights movement for over 6 years. I have experience in teaching this subject to students in elementary, middle, and high school. I also have experience tutoring college students. I have a degree in Communications, so I will be able to communicate and teach this topic without being biased. I was able to research, write essays, and give speeches about this topic throughout college. I was trained by professionals to understand history and the issues surrounding history. Most importantly, I will allow each student to express their thoughts and opinions about this topic. This will help them communicate and show what they have learned. It is very important to include all students. I have taught African American history for 4 years. I studied communications in colleges, which heavily focused on Afro and African American studies.
