    “Show Alternative Times.”

Speaking for the first time from the ancient Egyptian "Afterworld," King Tut puts to rest the controversies surrounding his life on the throne, the infamous curse and his untimely end.  This is an amusing class where students with a sense of humor will enjoy "asking" the most famous pharaoh discovered in the past century about his life and death.   

Before the class interview, students will receive background information on Tut and a sample list of interview questions.

Since no one really knows what happened to King Tut, there is no right or wrong here - questions or answers!

How I Teach:

I’m happy to hear questions and comments during the presentation--not only after class. 
Other features of my teaching style and philosophy:

√ Classes with only 4 students.
√ Lots of student interaction regarding class content.
√ Dramatic Keynote (like PowerPoint) presentation with illustrations and 
 photos to enhance learning.
√ Clips of videos to increase the understanding and enjoyment of the class content.
√ The display of my collection's AUTHENTIC ANTIQUITIES used by ancient Egyptians.

I encourage kids to share their opinions, ideas, mistakes and triumphs. I love it when kids laugh. After the class, I message parents/caretakers to inform them how their student did, 
and I send extra files for their interest. 

CLASS PRICE includes (in addition to the scheduled class):

1. Welcome message to both the student and enroller.
2. Quiz (actually, a learning tool) as a pre-lesson activity.
3. Personalized post-class message to the student and enroller, detailing how the learner did in class and any recommendations.
4. Availability to answer a student's questions (by message) after class.

The only thing students need to bring to class is their imagination; I will supply everything else.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I hold a Certificate of Museum Studies from Harvard University and a Diploma in Egyptology from Oxford College in England.  And I’ve been to Egypt three times on personalized, educational tours.  I am also a certified substitute teacher in the New Mexico and New Hampshire public school systems.

I've been captivated by ancient Egypt since I was 10 years old.  And I feel it's my destiny to share my enthusiasm for and expertise on this beautiful and brilliant 5000-year-old civilization with all of you.  I hope to see you soon in this class.  I think you'll agree that The Egyptian Room is an attractive, fun and inspiring place to learn.
