Class Experience

US Grade 6 - 9
Beginner Level
Students will meet online with me once a week for a total of 10 weeks. I will cover 20 life principles that are directly taken from my published paperback, "Best Little Teen Guide Ever!" These principles are ideal for middle and high school students, regardless of exact age. For instance, some students in 4th/5th grade would greatly benefit from these lessons. This class is 50 minutes in length, each class covering 2 life principles (approximately 25 min per principle). My teaching style incorporates showing videos that I personally created from each lesson, along with discussion, short reflections and drawings/illustrations. On occasion, students will take assessments to discover their career interests, personality type and strengths/abilities.

Learning Goals

Students will learn how to self analyze thoughts, emotions and behavior.
