Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - 1
Each class will begin with a get to know you question. Then we will jump into learning. I will quicky explain the first category of knowledge. For example if one of the categories is presidents I may say,  "Today, we will learn about United State Presidents. These presidents were the leaders of America. We have had 46 presidents but today we will look at 8." Next I will show slides of different influential presidents throughout history and name each of the 8 selected president. Then we will review them again two more times. This will only take us about 1-2 minutes. Then we will move on to our next category and I will introduce it briefly and then we will go through those slides. We will continue to learn fast information in this way for all of our categories for the day, typically 4-6 categories each with about 8-10 bits of information. Next, it will be time to learn about some our bits of information and learn some fast facts about some of them! This will be the time in the class when learners will each have a change to repeat (or read) the fact and discuss in greater detail. At the end of the lesson when time permits there will be a quick review and then your child will have an opportunity to share what they know and have learned during class or any time information they may want to teach us. To give you an idea of what will be taught I have provided a detailed list for one of the weeks as an example.  Whenever possible there will be a recording of the class to view the information again and again.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Florida Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I absolutely love teaching! In my class we have fun learning to read, write, and practice math skills. In addition to academic classes, I also enjoy teaching character building concepts such as perseverance, kindness, and self control. I have been a kindergarten teacher for the last 14 years and a preschool teacher for several years before earning my degree in Early Elementary and my Masters in Special Education from the University of Florida. I teach classes to help young learners build confidence, continue their curiosity of new skills and have fun learning. I love teaching children about animals and I have some fun guided reading classes where we also learn amazing animal facts. I have had training on best practices in teaching, growth mindset, character counts training, and have taken several reading endorsement classes. I use songs, silly stories, and chants to help learners learn new skills. I hope to foster a love of learning and help your child be the best they can be.

I started teaching on Outschool in 2020 and I have met the most wonderful learners these past few years. Along with teaching amazing learners on Outschool I also homeschool my son who has Down syndrome. I have also developed a reading and learning program for my son and other learners with intellectual disabilities. I have been tutoring young learners with Down syndrome with my program as well as teaching a class to a small group of learners with Ds at our local Down syndrome association once a week.

I am so excited to teach and encourage your learner! My goal is to make learning fun and give your learner the tools and practice they need to learn new skills. I love using a multi sensory approach to learning.
