All About Bugs: Lightning Bugs (a One Time Class)

HI! My name is Michelle and I love teaching!! I currently teach with VIPKid, teaching English to students in China ages 3 to 15. I absolutely love it!! I also taught a variety of after school classes at my son's elementary school for 6 years. I taught cooking, Reader's Theater, Geocaching, and Yearbook. I was a merit badge counselor for my son's Boy Scout troop and helped him earn his Eagle Badge. I have several degrees, BA in Small Business, BA in Marketing, and a degree in Pastry Arts. I am also a licensed EMT and work as a medic in the film industry. I have worked as a medic for the last 10 years and love it!

As a teacher, I believe that learning should be fun! Students learn better when they enjoy what they are doing. I also believe that students should be allowed to make mistakes. It is when we correct our mistakes that we learn our lessons. I like students to be inquisitive and excited to be in class because that is when the real magic happens!

At my house, we have 5 cats and 1 dog. We also often have horses, chickens, cows, and rabbits wandering in our neighborhood. It is not uncommon to see a variety of animals that do not belong to us hanging out in our front yard. In October, every year, my city of Albuquerque,has the International Balloon Fiesta - the most photographed event in the world. It is a beautiful time of the year and I hope to have a class on it! 

I cannot wait to see you in my classroom!
