Class 3: Introduction To Video Editing Using OpenShot 14-17yo

Hello and welcome! My name is Andrew and I am a teacher, former Assistant Camp Director and volunteer firefighter.
I teach:

- CapCut Video Editing
- Beginner Morse code


In my high school years, I took an Amateur Radio Licensing Class that included learning Morse Code. I did so well with the Morse Code that I earned an award for being able to send and receive the code at 5 words per minute. As a senior in high school, I taught and organized a small group of high school and middle school students about Morse Code. 

In 2013, I graduated from Green Mountain College in Vermont with two degrees: Adventure Education & Youth Development & Camp Management. During my 4 years of college, I also created a Ham Radio Club and offered classes and fun projects to college aged students. 

After college, I worked for 5 years at the Hawthorne Valley Farm Visiting Students Program and Summer Camp programs. I started out as a camp counselor and eventually worked one year as the Assistant Director. During this time, I again occasionally taught a Morse Code class to the interested students who were 9-12 years old.

Teaching Values:
1. In class, I like to make the classroom fun and engaging so that the students can enjoy the learning process.
2. I will never make anyone feel bad about getting something wrong. I will allow mistakes to happen and them guide the students to correct their own work.
3. Every class, I make an effort to connect the content to real life examples to help bring out more interest and enthusiasm in the students.

As a teenager living in rural New York, USA, I communicated to another Ham Radio Operator in Alaska using Morse Code with a handmade dipole antenna.
