Embroidery For Beginners with Jamie Ages 10 - 18
What's included
2 live meetings
1 hrs 30 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
Students in this “hand-work” creative arts class will learn to transfer floral designs onto fabric. Over two class meetings, students will learn to thread a needle, knot their thread, and make the basic stitches involved in creating beautiful embroidered designs on fabric. They will learn the vocabulary associated with the tools, procedures, and stitches. After all, each type of stitch has its own name! The teacher will provide live, close-up demonstrations, guided coaching, and patient, encouraging support. We will stitch to our favorite music (student created play list) as we practice during class. The teacher will teach the running stitch, chain stitch, satin, stem, and split stitches. Students will end the second class by sharing their art pieces with the class. I look forward to stitching with you! Materials are minimum, inexpensive, and easily attainable. Please see the materials list, gather your supplies, and meet me in the classroom! PLEASE READ For Learners section of this class for flower template designs.

Hi Parents! Thank you for your interest in my classes. I offer a wide variety of classes within the life skills, language arts, math, and science content areas. My most popular classes are private math tutoring, shoe tying, introduction to writing and a variety of creative arts classes. These classes are designed for students in elementary through grade 6. I have been a teacher for over thirty years. I have taught students from many cultures and backgrounds. I have taught all content subjects in every elementary grade as well as 6th grade Language Arts. I have taught students on line, in public, parochial, homebound, after school, and in enrichment settings. To date, I have taught over 8,000 virtual on-line classes! I am a licensed teacher, administrator, instructional coach, and also have my academically gifted certification. I earned my masters in school administration from UNC-Chapel Hill, and a highly-qualified bachelors in K-6 from Elon College/University. In addition, I have an associates degree in Early Childhood Education. How we learn and the stages we move through are always taken into account when creating and delivering instruction. In my classroom, I use a wide variety of instructional strategies and research based methodologies to meet the individual learning styles and interests of my students. I use inquiry based learning and believe students learn best when their learning styles and interests are part of the classroom experience. Relationships are an essential part of a students success both in and out of the classroom. Building strong relationships with my students is at the core of my instructional approach. I am a lifelong learner and want to inspire my love for learning with all of my students, in hopes they will be too. Teaching is my passion but in my spare time, I enjoy reading, gardening, embroidery, spending time outdoors and being on the water. I am happiest when playing with my eight year old grandson Alex and our adorable dog Gracie. I hope you will check out my catalog of classes. I would be happy to create a new class for your interests too. I hope to meet your child soon! Educationally Yours, Jamie
