If you would like to meet me first, before committing to a class, please visit my "Office Hours" class for USD$1: 12 and under: https://outschool.com/classes/office-hours-for-current-future-learners-enrolled-in-classes-with-pamela-7-12y-n4RWvPd2#ustAYO53Uy 13 to 18: https://outschool.com/classes/office-hours-for-current-future-learners-enrolled-in-classes-with-pamela-teen-pQU4TJrD#ustAYO53Uy We will discuss unique laws from around the world. The laws of any given society reflect the values of said society, therefore the reasons as to why certain seemingly unreasonable or unnecessary laws exist will expose students to alternative value systems, instilling tolerance in them as they venture out into the world with more autonomy. If you do not see a class time here that suits you, please contact me and I will accommodate you if it is possible as my schedule is full but flexible. Locations of these laws include: -Australia -United Arab Emirates -Singapore -Canada -Germany - Switzerland -Italy -Greece -Poland -France -Britain -Scotland -Barbados -St. Vincent -St. Lucia -Antigua -Barbuda -Jamaica -Sri Lanka -Denmark -United States of America -Argentina -Cambodia -Spain -Russia -Japan -China -Portugal -Bolivia
Learning Goals
Learners will appreciate the differences between the many cultures we explore, and geography will also be touched upon as we will locate the places where these laws are from on a map.
