This is a Self Pace class meeting there are no live meetings. Each lesson is prerecorded to give you the freedom to interact with each lesson on your own schedule and enjoy each lesson as many times as you’d like to view them. Each lesson post will have 10 questions about the lesson material. Students can write answer to these questions that I will respond to with praise or if needed encouraging correction. If students would like to respond to these questions in the form of a video instead of writing that works great too.
