Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - Kindergarten
In this class, we will study and see real arachnids. We will learn about the characteristics of an arachnid, where they live, how they move, and what they eat. We will discuss different arachnids we see near our homes. We will look at pictures, videos, and real spiders to answer questions and promote curiosity. The students will be encouraged to draw an arachnid they have learned about. This class has movement and conversation and uses a lot of imagination. This class will be fun and informative. The students will get to meet my pet spider.

My teaching style:
I enjoy having fun while teaching and politely encouraging my student to remember the rules to help the class run smoothly. I always want the students to share and interact as much as possible while allowing shy learners to watch and engage as they feel comfortable. I strive to help all learning types feel included in my class.  My goal is to have your student share all the interesting facts they have learned for days after the class. My personal style of teaching is engaging, energetic and enthusiastic, with a touch of silly.  I hope to share my passion for learning about all living creatures with each of my students.

Learning Goals

Students will have a beginning knowledge of different arachnids. They will be able to discuss arachnid facts such as where they live, how they move, and what they eat.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Illinois Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Bachelor's Degree in Education from Western Illinois University
I am absolutely thrilled to have the privilege of teaching your child. With a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, a 120-hour TEFOL Certificate, and a PADI Scuba Divemaster certificate,  I bring a wealth of teaching experience to the online classroom.

Over the years, I have taught in public and private schools, offered personalized one-on-one tutoring, conducted engaging online classes, and served as a dedicated camp counselor. Teaching is not just a profession for me; it's a true passion, and I am eager to share my expertise with your child.

My areas of expertise encompass a wide range, including the exciting realms of exploring living animals, English as a Second Language (ESL), Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, and more.

As a former camp counselor, I had the privilege of leading students on captivating exploration hikes and engaging experiments that ignited their curiosity about the natural world. My lifelong fascination with animals even led me to obtain a PADI Dive Master certificate, allowing me to introduce young students to the wonders of scuba diving and the ocean's mysteries.

During my college years, I earned an endorsement in Language Arts. For the past four years, I have dedicated myself to teaching ESL online, forging connections with students from diverse backgrounds worldwide. Teaching the English language is a source of great joy for me, and I employ fun and creative techniques to help students of varying proficiency levels master this important skill.

My passion for all creatures, from insects and arachnids to mollusks, drives me to inspire and connect with my students. I encourage them to observe and enthusiastically share their discoveries of fascinating creatures from their own surroundings during our classes. Additionally, I create opportunities for students who share similar interests to socialize and learn together.

Building connections with my students is a top priority, and I actively encourage them to participate and share their knowledge on every topic. Throughout our classes, I will provide personal videos and photographs from the topics we study, and I eagerly anticipate your child's contributions as well.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions, and be sure to follow my profile for updates on upcoming classes. I am excited to welcome your child into my class soon!
