Class Experience

In this Chinese Food Cooking Flex class, we will be making Chinese meals and appetizers, over a 4 week time span. We will be making shrimp fried rice, crab rangoon, beef and broccoli with rice, and chicken lo mein . Most of the recipes require basic cooking knowledge but are still simple cooking concepts that any learner should be able to accomplish. During this course we will work on knife skills, use sharp knives, use hot stoves, ovens, microwaves, etc. Your learner should be comfortable with these items or be prepared to have a trusted grown up close for comfort. Students should have basic knowledge of their cooking appliances; for example, the learner should be familiar with how to use their oven, stovetop, microwave, food processor, etc., to ensure their success in the class.
In this class students will learn by doing! I will be posting videos of the recipe of the week from start to finish. There will be recipes posted in the classroom, so the student can read and familiarize themselves with the process before seeing the video. The student can approach this class by either watching the video in advance, then replay as they make the recipe on their own. Or, if they're a little more adventurous they can gather ingredients and make the recipe alongside me while watching the video. However the learner feels comfortable is fine with me.
Each recipe will make enough for at least 4 servings, many times more, feel free to adjust the recipe as needed for the size of your family. I can help with the recipe adjustment, please message me for individual help.
During this course we will learn primarily through doing, but I will have additional activities that are required to build rapport between the classmates and me, the teacher:
Week 1--Shrimp Fried Rice Recipe Video, Grocery Store Scavenger Hunt Game, required videos and photos by students, comments on other learner's photos and videos
Week 2--Crab Rangoon, Crab Rangoon History Quick Research Project, required videos and photos by students, comments on other learner's photos and videos
Week 3--Beef and Broccoli with Rice Video, Household Items Photo Scavenger Hunt, required videos and photos by students, comments on other learner's photos and videos
Week 4--Chicken Lo Mein Video, Chinese Noodle History Quick Research Project, required videos and photos by students, comments on other learner's photos and videos.
Upon the completion of each week's recipe, I would like the student to post a video and/or photo of them cooking, AND a completed recipe photo/video. I will ask prompting questions for their review of the dish, what did they like? not like? Favorite part of preparing the recipe? Least favorite part? During the course of the week, I will post some photo/video scavenger hunt games for the student to participate in as well. In this class, we are all friends and it is a safe space. We will all be learning together, and sometimes we may make mistakes, any rude or bullying comments on photos or videos will not be tolerated. Let's build each other up and leave respectful comments or suggestions for improvements.
The goal of this course is to provide the student with cooking skills, confidence and expertise in the kitchen, and delicious Chinese recipes to have in your back pocket! 

All of the videos for my flex classes have captions if needed for deaf or hard of hearing students.
