Winter is fun when you can play in the snow! In this 4-week course, students will learn everything there is to know about winter. Every lesson, students will be introduced to new vocabulary words, as well as target sentences. There will also be a craft or game at the end of every lesson that will reinforce what was taught. This is a beginners class and no prior knowledge is needed. Students will be encouraged to repeat words and sentences during each lesson to practice pronunciation. Week 1: Weather Students will learn to say what the weather is like during the winter. Week 2: Clothing Students will learn to say what people wear during the winter. Week 3: Winter Activities Students will learn about the different activities we can do during the winter. Week 4: Winter Animals Students will learn the names of different winter animals and some fun facts for each. Students will be left unmuted (unless there is a lot of background) so that they can repeat after me.

Bachelor's Degree in Education from Bishop’s University
Hello!
My name is Yvonne and I am a certified elementary school teacher in Quebec, Canada. I have 5 years of experience teaching in a classroom setting and over three years of experience teaching ESL online.
I am a stay-at-home mom at the moment. I have three boys under the age of 8 that keep me very busy. I'm so excited to have found Outschool because I have missed being in the classroom and teaching subjects that I love. I believe students learn the best when they feel comfortable in the classroom. I engage my students by being genuine, encouraging, patient, and funny. Building rapport and relationships with my students is as important as the content of the lesson.
I have a passion for languages and speak three myself (English, French, and Swiss German). I also get by in Spanish and German. I will be creating French classes for beginners. I want my students to enjoy learning a new language and feel comfortable enough to speak it in my class.
I also really love travelling and have been lucky enough to have visited many countries in Europe, South America, and Africa. I will be offering classes that take us around the world. Some of my travel classes will have a different focus (animals, food, extreme weather, etc.) while others will be more general but focus on a specific country.
I also really enjoy teaching through the use of picture books and will be creating a variety of lessons based on some of my favourite books. I will be creating lessons that focus on making connections as readers. I also enjoy teaching my students the writing process by first exploring different themes and topics that connect with them.
I am very happy to be teaching through Outschool and look forward to meeting your child!
