Assessment
I will review key points throughout the class to ensure they understand the class content and are following along throughout class. I end each class by asking what each student learned in class!

Class Experience

This lecture style class will cover the basic equipment needed for thoroughly grooming a horse. We will go over tips and tricks to get your horse looking it's best. We will also discuss why we groom. Topics will include grooming for cleanliness, grooming for wellness check, and grooming in order to build a stronger bond with the horse. Students will get to see each piece of equipment used on a slide first. We will go over the function of each brush and then watch a demonstration of the grooming process through video clips. No horse experience or knowledge is required.

Learning Goals

Specifically the students will earn the tools needed to properly and thoroughly groom a horse. They will learn the many benefits of grooming. I hope they can walk away with an understanding and appreciation for the time it takes to care for a horse.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I am happy to be able to provide some educational and fun classes to your child! These classes are all about horses and dogs! You can expect to see classes that focus on learning horse terminology, body language, basic riding tips, and how horses can help your child be emotionally self aware. I also will have classes about dogs including: reasons to get a dog, safety around handling a dog, and other fun dog facts!

I have a Bachelor's in Animal Science from New Mexico State University. I participated in horse related classes such as Fitting and Selling, Equine Reproduction, Reigning, Western Pleasure, and Management of Equine Operations. 

I have 20 years of hands on experience with horses. I have spent accumulatively 3 years giving beginner and intermediate riding lessons to children ages 8-14 years old. I was a member of 4-H for 5 years. During this time I mentored those younger than me in the horse project. During my time in 4-H I did both the horse project and dog project so you can expect to see some dog related classes as well!

I have spent the last 4 years working as a Product Specialist for EasyCare, Inc. This company manufactures hoof boots and natural hoof care products for horses. I spend my days educating people about what boot might be right for their horse in their unique situation. I enjoy educating others as well as myself on the ever changing world of horses. 

Horses are my passion. I love stirring this passion in others, especially kids. Horse's have a lot of offer us. Working horses has had a great impact on my character development, self awareness, patience, taking ownership of my own actions, communicating through body language, money management, and problem solving. Truly there are limitless ways horses help develop essential life skills and coping mechanisms. I want every child to have the chance to develop those skills in a fun environment.
