The purpose of this class is to give students the opportunity to meet other people their age to build friendship skills. It's become important for children to have a way to socialize AND learn how to socialize well in online settings. In this activity, under the expert facilitation of an experienced educator and social & emotional learning (SEL) pioneer, students will be given opportunities to connect with others in a positive way. Focusing on encouragement instead of coercion, the facilitator will help the students engage in ways that bring out their unique strengths, honor the group as a whole, and help them feel capable and important. While the conversation in this class is English, it is also ESL friendly, appropriate for CEFR: A2, B1, B2, and beyond. Having learners from different countries and backgrounds helps expand our opportunities to connect with and respect others. ----- A NOTE ABOUT THE COST OF THIS CLASS: I know the price of my classes is higher than many others on Outschool. As an experienced and talented educator, I believe I'm worth this amount and invite you to look at my reviews. That said, I don't want any family to be priced out of what I offer. Whatever your financial situation, if you're interested in one or more of my classes, please reach out and let me know what you can afford. I can provide coupons, refunds, and/or reductions, and am confident we can find an equitable rate that works for you and me.
Learning Goals
Students will learn friendship-building strategies, recognize how to help maintain positive group dynamics, and feel good about themselves and their contributions.

External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
