In this multi day class, your learners will be encouraged to read, discuss and brainstorm ideas using these books as a source material. Each week we will read a section of the book before coming to class for the discussion. No background knowledge will be necessary in this class. Your learner will have some questions provided in advance that we will make time to discuss, and we will discuss your learner's favorite part of that week's reading. During our discussions, we will develop and strengthen reading comprehension, we will build and strengthen vocabulary, and of course, fuel the imagination by means of in-class brainstorming sessions. Please see below an example of how a class would be conducted. If your learner loves to read books in the Wimpy Kid series or just loves to read books in general, this could be the class for them.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from United States Institution of Language and Clerical Studies
My name is Jeff Reynolds and I love to teach!
On Outschool, I will have a broad range of classes: English, art, science, math, SAT Test preparation, history, travel and public speaking. I have my Bachelor's Degree in TESOL Fundamentals and Methodology, and I have been a teacher since 2000. I have taught many different ages, ranging from age 4 to age 18, and I currently am an ESL teacher as well. For the past 9 years, my wife and I were living and studying in Egypt, which really helps to strengthen and benefit the information in my ancient Egypt related classes. We are in fact hoping to return to Egypt very soon to resume our studies. My wife and I love traveling around the world, the outdoors, and good food. I believe that all children deserve to have a quality education that they can truly benefit from and enjoy. Learning should always be fun. If learning becomes a chore, the desire to continue learning slowly dies away. When learning is fun, students have the chance to increase their knowledge and increase their potential for success later in life. Children deserve a fun and safe learning environment.Reviews
