*This class is structured EXACTLY like my ABC's of Geography course, but is for those who cannot attend at the scheduled times or prefer the flexible schedule. This FLEX class goes in depth to review fun facts learned about each country (culture, landmarks, food, animals, etc) and practice letters. We will review counting and colors along with other things as well! Each week in our FLEX class, students will watch a pre-recorded lesson that focuses on a letter and country.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Asbury College
Hello! My name is Miss Lisa! I love reading, learning and traveling ... and not necessarily in that order! :) I LOVE reading and diving into books and getting LOST in stories and learning. It can be quite an adventure like stepping through the wardrobe into Narnia! In my classroom, you will join me on adventures of different kinds.
In our classes, we'll go to far away places, whether in our imaginations or virtually as we travel! We'll read amazing books and learn about new things! We'll also read and discuss some books and even go "in game" in Minecraft to build what we are reading about.
I believe learning should be fun! My philosophy is "shh, don't let them know they're learning!" I LOVE to see my students having fun during our classes as they learn new things about our world and fall in love with reading. I also love to see students blossom as they become more comfortable and interact in the ways they feel comfortable. It is my desire to see your student come to my classroom and feel comfortable to LEARN, GROW and participate in whatever way they can.
I have been working with children ages 3-18 for over 20 years. I have organized and managed after-school mentoring programs and taught in church. I have been homeschooling for over 8 years and have been teaching online for over 6 years. I have a bachelor's degree in social work with an emphasis in psychology. I am also a published author.
I look forward to seeing you soon! If you have any questions, please message me. Please let me know if you have any scheduling difficulties; I typically answer within 24-48 hours.
