Class Experience

Are you ready to learn how to cook a complete meal for your family?   This class is geared toward learners who are interested in becoming more independent in the kitchen by making dinner with minimal help from home.  In each class, we will complete a dinner recipe together from start to finish.  My style of teaching is very hands-on, as I will be cooking alongside the learners.  I use two cameras--one showing me, then one showing my counter or stove so that I can demonstrate each of the steps in the recipe.  As we cook together, I will check-in and ask learners if they are doing OK or have completed each step.  

At least 2 days before class, I will post the ingredients for the recipe we will be completing together.  I will also provide a copy of the recipe for you to print, if you'd like.

Due to the nature of this course, we may not always end at the advertised end time.  We may end 5 minutes early or even go up to 15 minutes late.  There are so many factors that play into the length of a cooking class (discussion, troubleshooting, questions, cooking times, etc).  Thank you for being understanding and let's have fun cooking together!

I love teaching, and I love my students as my own. I foster a positive classroom environment through encouragement, strong personal connections, clear classroom management and structure, and understanding.  Each learner is unique and special, and I love celebrating each in their strengths and accomplishments. I am supportive of all needs and abilities.  If you're looking for a loving and kind teacher to inspire your learner, I encourage you to try one of my classes.  I can't WAIT to meet your learner soon!

Parental Guidance
Parents may need to be close by to help with operating kitchen appliances, like the oven or stove. Please be aware of potential kitchen hazards. We will use the stove and oven to heat our ingredients. We will be chopping with knives. Please be sure to have oven mitts ready to take any dishes out of the oven. Parental guidance is suggested. **Please discuss with the instructor if you have questions about possible substitutions. I'm happy to help you find a substitution to match your dietary needs.

Teacher expertise and credentials
As an educator for 18 years, I know that one of the most fun parts of school is CREATING learning experiences for children.  These recipes will help your child LISTEN and HAVE FUN in an engaging and accepting classroom atmosphere.  I love creating connections with my learners and their families so that they will feel welcome to be "themselves" in our classroom.  My online teaching experience spans over the past 6 years where I have taught 1000s of students and lessons. I have taught over 200 classes on Outschool, with over 1650 learners and counting!  I love seeing my "online students" return to my classes!
