Class Experience

In this 55-minute session, I will be taking the kids through an immersive experience on the Indian Festival of Lights - Diwali. 
- STORYTIME - Audio-Visual Storytelling on India and Why is Diwali celebrated?
- ARTWORK on India and Diwali
- DIWALI MAGIC - What are the things you can do? how can you create magic at home?
- GAMES AND MUSICAL FUN - Let's add Bollywood music to the party

I would engage with my class on a LIVE video conference. I like to divide the time to introductions, identifying and discussing class objectives/learner interests, storytelling, artwork, and musical fun. Fun props like sunglasses, scarves, and colors at disposal will further brighten up the process. 
Lastly, I would want to spend 5-7min to assess the learnings from the class with a rapidrapid-fired for the kids.

Learning Goals

90% of the material is self-created by the teacher through audio-visual presentations. YouTube will be used to add musical fun I have been celebrating Diwali since birth - 29 years in India and 5 years in the US. I would love to share pictures from my celebrations as a kid and stories from my lived experience to bring this topic to life.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Business Administration and Management from Asian Institute of Management, Philippines
Bachelor's Degree in Economics from St. Xavier's College, Kolkata, India
I come from a very humble background in India and moved to the US post-marriage in 2019. I studied Economics in my undergrad and later pursued my MBA from AIM [Philippines] and coursework with Yale and Kellogg. I have 10+ years of experience in Consulting, Teaching, and Entrepreneurship.

If I am not working, I am running behind my toddler, writing, learning Spanish, meditating, or being creative in the kitchen.  

The 200+ reviews and 1000+ learners made me a teacher and I discovered my joy from teaching and power of virtual learning.

I have been celebrating Diwali since birth - 29 years in India and 5 years in the US. I would love to share pictures from my celebrations as a kid and stories from my lived experience to bring this topic to life.
