Class Experience

Students will learn by viewing a slide deck and engaging in a teacher led discussion. Questions will be asked along the way to help students explore concepts such as Social Identities, Intersectionality, Biases, Sources of Conflict, Conflict Styles, and Communication Skills. Class time is structured as an interactive dialogue around how these skills can alleviate bullying and build a better appreciation for our diverse world. The class is designed for Middle and High School youth, ages 12 to 16, with some adaptability, depending on enrollment.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have many years of experience working with youth who come from diverse backgrounds. I was the Director of Education in a small non-profit, where our students learned about compassion and other important values. I have formal teaching experience, especially with high school youth. My educational background and degrees align with the subject content. I am an expert. I also have advanced online facilitation skills that enable me to engage students successfully in a virtual context. The skills explored and learned in this class are extremely relevant to our world today. What parent wouldn't want their child to learn how to better resolve conflict and build appreciation for diversity.
