8 live meetings
8 in-class hoursClass Experience
Students will learn how to play Dungeons and Dragons by playing the Barrow of the Forgotten King campaign. I will be acting as the Dungeon Master, the person who leads the game/tells the story/ensures fair play among the player characters. In the beginning of the first class I will go over the basic rules of DnD, how to create a character using the Players Handbook and the use of dice. Students are encouraged to have a copy of the players handbook and/or other resources to help build a character either on paper or online. Time is built into the first session to allow for character creation and to answer questions and for students to connect with one another. This is the next progression from Scourge of the Howling Horde, however new players/students are welcome to join. With all sessions your student will have fun and learn/hone many real life skills. This schedule is subject to change based on the size of the group and group dynamics. This is a safe, fun place to learn about team work, team building, public speaking, reasoning, critical thinking, math, problem solving, and research skills. There is fighting in D&D, but no sensual content permitted, encounters are PG-13. *I have permission from Wizards of the Coast to use this content within their fan fiction guidelines.*

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Florida Gulf Coast University
Hello & Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in my classes and in me. I have my Bachelor's of Art: Fine Art from Florida Gulf Coast University, go Eagles! After four years of teaching visual arts and three years of teaching online, I am excited for every opportunity to teach young learners and help them grow. My classroom is one that is open and friendly, accepting of everyone regardless of skill level or knowledge, promotes creativity, and inspires learners to continue to learn. I love that "aha" moment when something we are learning clicks and a students eyes light up.
I am open to creating classes to meet the needs of students. Share your excitement and ideas! I love all medium: drawing, painting, sculpting, fiber arts and digital design. I also love cooking from scratch.
I try to tie in the history of the arts as I teach so that it builds a background for what we are learning. If we are learning about Surrealism, we might digitally travel to Spain and learn about the history of Salvador Dali and tour his museum. Then we will create a dream journal and our own artistic creations based on the style of the movement. I want my classes to inspire students of all ages to create.
I have always had a passion for the arts, traveling and gaming. I have been a gamer and have enjoyed tabletop games like GURPS and D&D, as well as online platforms like World of Warcraft and Asheron's Call.
I hope to have the opportunity to meet your learner soon! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
