Students will begin by learning the "styles" of play to better understand the flexible nature of the game, and how you can adapt it to the interests of players in your games. We will go over the facets of running a pre-written adventure as well as the joys of creating your own worlds and adventure premise that focuses on the interests of the dungeon master and the players. A dungeon masters goal is to create a fun and exciting world and story for the players in their games, and through this class I will teach the many tools and tips available to dungeon masters to create that fun-filled environment at their own gaming tables.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Greetings! Salutations! Ahoy! and hello! I am Gavan Kennedy, a tabletop role-playing game instructor with a level 20 enthusiasm for developing life skills and social growth through play and facilitating the bonds and memories that come from collaborative storytelling.
DEVELOPING LIFE SKILLS AND SOCIAL GROWTH
Dungeons and Dragons is a wonderful tool for developing social-emotional learning skills. Through role-playing games I aim to provide a space for learners to be creative, communicative, and cooperate with each other. I focus on fun interaction for newfound friends, utilizing the learner's imagination to create the world and adventures within while helping students learn empathetic skill building, cooperation, problem solving, communication, and frustration tolerance by celebrating successes and learning from failures.
CREATING A FUN STORY FOR LEARNERS AND BY LEARNERS
What sets me apart from other D&D instructors is my focus on asking questions to build a fantasy world using the suggestions of the players. Every adventure setting is crafted by the players' suggestions to create a unique setting all their own. This exercise emphasizes the imagination of the learners in order to share a fun and exciting adventure tailored just for and by them. By combining their complimentary skill sets can learn to rely on each other and discuss plans of action to solve problems. Additionally, every action in D&D has a chance of failure but failure is not the end. One of the greatest teachable lessons is that a failure is merely a step toward a greater success. Through this philosophy I aim to fill the learners stories with fun and adventure while they learn life skills they can take with them on any of life's adventures!Reviews
