This teacher will use videos from my personal collection to various applicable videos showing various aspects of horse discipline, breeds and fun facts. Screen share is also used as one of my teaching methods. I also love doing live classes from the barn as well as interviews with various horse experts. No previous horse experience is required for this class. This is a social horse enthusiast group that involves fun horse centered conversations and discussions. Learners can use this ongoing class schedule is perfect for summer. Upcoming class Schedule is as follows: July 19th: Bronc Riding. We discuss the history, scoring and how riders and horses do what they do. Open discussion and videos included. July 26th: Mustangs/wild horses from the Sand Wash Basin in Colorado. Learn and discuss famous wild mustangs from this area. August 2nd: No class this date. August 9th: Rescue Horses. Learn about the horse rescue business, talk about a rescue and see what they do. August 16th: Appaloosa breed. Live from the barn we learn about Sonny (aka Sonata) the Appaloosa horse. Learners can get up close and learn about the horse breed, his individual personality and breed characteristics. During these classes, learners can share, discuss and have fun with their peers talking All About Horses!! The class is informative, and at the same time encouraging to learners to share, have a peer group who also loves horses and have some fun equine conversations.
Learning Goals
This class is a social based class that learners can have conversations and discussions all about horses! Each week is a different topic.
I would also LOVE to hear from learners about additional topic and theme ideas for the future. As this is a class for you, the learner, I want to direct the class to be what you need. This teacher really likes hearing from learners and molding the class to be as much fun as possible. Learning should be fun.

Teacher expertise and credentials
As a lifetime horse owner, horse enthusiast and trainer, I love helping others grow and learn about horses. Horses have been both one of my greatest teachers as well as students. I have learned so many things from them and with them.
As a home school parent, teaching about things makes connections and learning. For example, learning about a specific horse breed can lead to researching where they came from (Geography and History) or how a color pattern is form (Genetics) and much more.
As a Social Worker, (Social work degree from University of Wisconsin, River Falls) I also have experiences with numerous people groups. I attempt to meet a learner where they're at and cheer them on in their successes. I have experience with learners with various special needs and enjoy watching them attain their personal goals.
