Class Experience

In this course, we will discuss who Elvis Presley was, his childhood, music, and movies. His popularity has remained through the years.  We will use powerpoint, music & video clips, and trivia to learn more about Elvis, and we will look at the 1950s as well, and why he was popular, and who his influences were. My teaching style is positive and upbeat, and this should be fun! Leaners will get to interact a lot with me and each other through discussion and questions and answers. There is no previous knowledge needed.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I teach Reading, Grammar, History and have: taught full-time, and worked as a substitute teaching many different subjects in classes from Kinder to 12th grade. My majors in college ranged from Child Development, to Theater Arts, to English, and an additional History minor. In addition to teaching I am a published author. My philosophy of teaching is that we are all life-long learners and we never stop learning. To that end, every lesson should fun and enjoyable, while teaching, and/or learning, something new. The students should have fun while they learn, as that's the way we learn the most.
