1-2 hours per week. If a student does not finish his or her work during that day’s lesson, the student will be expected to finish it prior to the next class lesson. This class does meet once a week for 8 weeks and it is expected for each student to keep up with the lessons and any work in the lesson. With this said, this is a basic introductory course and many students are able to follow along at the pace set.Class Experience

I like to have fun in my classes. I am thorough in execution but joyful in presentation. I do expect students to follow instruction and do the assignments, and I welcome every question a student may ask. I will use slides to help present my lessons and hands-on work to engage student learning. I love having students bring in their own learning styles and ways of participation. Since this is a small class, I do expect to interact with all students. I want to learn about my students and what they are experienced in. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
