Teacher will have a short presentation at the beginning of class with visuals (using Google slides) and video clips. 
Students will be encouraged to practice the skills taught that day by interacting with other students in the class. The teacher will give examples using puppets. The teacher will give oral feedback to students to encourage and give suggestions on various ways the skills can be implemented.

I teach enthusiastically and energetically. My goal is to help each learner achieve a milestone specific for the learner. Feel free to message me with any concerns or questions or to give me information that might be helpful in helping your child reach an individual milestone.

There is not a prerequisite class to this class.
