Welcome to Full PLL class for CFOP method! 

Cube Coach Michael is excited to teach this class to help cuber's who need to improve their PLL (Permutating Last Layer) to complete the 3x3 cube.
This class is for those who know 2 Look CFOP or Full CFOP and need help learning, understanding, and even mastering the PLL/last part. 
This class will teach and explain how to recognize and apply correct PLL with one look to complete the 3x3 Cube.

 What does PLL mean? 
Permuting the Last Layer to complete last layer and solve the 3x3 cube.
*This class will ONLY cover Full PLL.
*This class will not cover ANY parts of Cross, F2L, or OLL.

This is a 7 week class

Week 1 - Permutations of Edges Only
    - Show how to recognize and apply correct algorithm to move edges to correct place to solve the puzzle.

Week 2 - Permutations of Corners Only 
    - Show how to recognize and apply correct algorithm to move corners to correct place to solve the puzzle.

Week 3 - Swap One Set of Adjacent Corners (1/2)
     - Show how to recognize and apply correct algorithm to move adjacent to correct place to solve the puzzle.

Week 4 - Continue to Swap One Set of Adjacent Corners (2/2)
     - Show how to recognize and apply correct algorithm to move adjacent to correct place to solve the puzzle.

Week 5 - Swap One set of Diagonal Corners
    - Show how to recognize and swap one set of diagonal corners correctly to correct place to solve the puzzle.

Week 6 - G Permutations (Double cycles)
    - Show how to recognize and swap edges and corners correct place to solve the puzzle.

Week 7 - PLL Drills
    - Drills how to recognize, setup, and apply to and complete last layer.
    - lock it all in - look and learn drills, Q & A, and next steps.


*The Full PLL class can be taken 'before or after' CFOP or F2L classes just 'not' the same time as other CFOP(F2L) classes.

Learning Goals

This class will help cuber's who need to improve their Last Layer times for CFOP.

Teacher expertise and credentials

Hello, I am Michael Calahan and I teach how to solve most Rubik's Cubes and other twisty puzzles in a group session I also have private 1:1 classes called 'Rubik's Help Desk'.

I started Rocket Science for Kids in 2006 to help students explore learning through LEGO and expanded to Rubik's Cube classes and Social Cube Club's in 2019. I am thrilled to be a Certified Rubik's Cube Trainer. With over 1,000 cubing students benefiting from our classes. 

I solved a few cube/puzzles as a kid but really grasp the educational values over the past 6 years and now solve over 30 different cube/puzzles and counting!

My objective is to help your learner with all cubing questions and help them continue to expand to new cubes and more advanced method to get faster times. 

All learners are encouraged to develop team collaboration, ask questions, and engage others who want to explore topics that interest them. My classroom and STEAM education appreciate all cultures and all learning types. Our classroom is a safe space for your learner.

Look forward to meeting you.

Mr. Michael
