Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 4
Beginner Level
In this fun, introductory class for young learners, we'll talk about:
  - What is a business?
  - What is the difference between a product and a service?
  - What is marketing?  What is an ad?
  - What are common businesses for kids (e.g. art, dog walking, baking, babysitting)?

Class includes lots of interactive discussion and time for questions.  Learners are encouraged to advocate for how best they can participate (video on or off, chat, verbal participation, etc.)  Learners can come to class with or without a business idea.

A note about my classroom guidelines: kids can be wiggly, distracted, and sensory seeking, and that's totally normal! I try to create spaces that are supportive, cozy, and interactive. Because some behaviors can be distracting for classmates, I will share a basic set of guidelines at the beginning of class. I want to make sure that all students are cared for, and reducing on-camera distractions is part of that!
1)  Video on or off (after verification)!  Discussions can be verbal or in *on-topic* chats.
2)  Be respectful; don't interrupt; raise your (physical or digital) hand!  Don't intentionally distract other students (e.g. putting things directly in front of the camera)
3)  Because they can be quite distracting, this class does not allow video filters, avatars, or background changes (except blur).
4)  If necessary, I will move a disruptive student to the waiting room.  If appropriate, I will let them back in for another chance to stay in class respectfully.  If this occurs and you have questions, please reach out to Support.
5)  Any racist, homophobic, body shaming, violent or inappropriate language/images will result in removal from class.  If this happens, you may email outschool@support.com with any questions.  

A few other notes:
-  Please click your meeting link 2-3 minutes early so we can start class on time!  
-  Per OS policy, if there are no students in the classroom 10 minutes after class starts, I will log off and end class.  (If you're having tech issues trying to enter the classroom, just send a message or post in the classroom, so I know you are there!)
-  If you cannot attend, please let me know at least 24 hours before class starts, so I can transfer you to a different section (when possible).  When it might not be possible: if you ask for a transfer for a multiday class the day before it starts, and your transfer will result in the class dropping below the learner minimum, I may not be able to offer a transfer.  But if I can, I will!
-  Class recordings are not automatically shared; they will be made available when possible.  Please note, new OS policy is that a learner can't watch a video until they have attended class, unless they are a verified learner.
-  Learners are encouraged to advocate for how they would like to participate.  If your learner needs adult help (e.g. adult on screen, adult answers for child or facilitates answers, adult takes notes), please let me know in advance per OS parent guidance.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from London School of Economics
Bachelor's Degree from University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill
I have had a small business for 12+ years, in fact, I have run small businesses in vintage goods, handmade jewelry, craft events, business workshops, and business consulting.  I have 25+ years of work experience in food service, marketing, non-profit work, environmental policy, urban planning, writing, and much more!  I have worked with young folks on business topics for around 5 years, and have taught adult business workshops for the same amount of time.  I have taught social media marketing and other business topics to thousands of learners.  I have a 7 and 10 year old at home who love to talk about money making schemes, so I have lots of experience working with young, ambitious and frenetic kiddos about making money.
