Class Experience

Angela Davis is a powerhouse and a beacon in the fight for the rights of people of color in the USA. Her strength and resilience have solidified her position as a pioneering black woman in history, catalyzing significant change through her activism. She has firmly established her legacy as a trailblazing figure, leaving an indelible mark through her activism.

In this class, students will learn about the life and work of Angela Davis, focusing on her significant contributions to civil rights and activism. The class  will cover various topics including Davis's background and upbringing, her involvement in the civil rights movement, exploration of her activism beyond civil rights, and discussion of her contemporary relevance and impact. Throughout the class, interactive discussions and multimedia presentations will enhance learning and engagement.

It is important to know that I am very honest in my classes. I don't sugarcoat history but I truthfully tell it in an age-appropriate manner. I like my classes to be interactive, so there will be many opportunities to participate  in class discussions. 

Each student will have an opportunity to share their thoughts and opinions. Participation is encouraged but not required. If you have any questions about the class or suggestions please send a message.  This class could possibly go over 30 minutes, it is important to give each student the opportunity to speak and ask questions.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from University of North Florida
As an ESL Teacher and Tutor, I have taught classes on African American history, American Figures, Racism, and the civil rights movement for over 4 years. I have experience in teaching this subject to students in elementary, middle, and high school. I also have experience tutoring college students. I have a degree in Communications, so I will be able to communicate and teach this topic without being biased. I was able to research, write essays, and give speeches about this topic throughout college. I was trained by professionals to understand history and the issues surrounding history. Most importantly, I will allow each student to express their thoughts and opinions about this topic. This will help them communicate and show what they have learned. It is very important to include all students. I have taught African American history for 2 years. I studied communications in colleges, which heavily focused on Afro and African American studies.
