Class Experience

Let’s have some fun, build and socialize together! This class is meant to expand imagination, creativity and confidence in a positive environment with like minded builders! All levels of builders are welcome-from beginner to advanced. During class students will also share past creations and sets, be able to hear a themed story and songs while students are building.

Each class I will give students with three different ideas/challenges of exciting creations that they can build during class time.  (These ideas will range from Star War's, Ninjago, City,  Friends, STEM ideas, Super Hero's and much more.) Students are also welcome to brainstorm with their classmates. We will discuss landscape, surroundings, and other characteristics that they may or may not want to use while building. (If students do not want to build the suggested ideas then the class and I will help them come up with an idea. Students are always welcome to free build whatever they would like or build their own set!) I am always available to help students come up with ideas based on their interests even if they do not fall within the "big idea" for the day. Each student can build to the best of their ability.

Together students will build, encourage, share ideas and ask and answer questions. I will encourage class participation, encouragement, and problem solving. However, if students are always welcome to participate as much or as little as they like. 

Throughout the class students are welcome to share their past and present creations and do lots of socializing. A highlight of class for many students is the story time which also helps facilitate ideas to build. 

This class is not based on building instruction specific projects, it is a free build class.
Students are not timed and if they do not finish during class then they can always work on their creations after class.
This class was created in early 2020 and has been a favorite for many students. I can't wait to see you in class!
Learning Goals
Students will be able to have fun while meeting other building brick lovers. Each week students will have the chance to follow a theme or challenge they are provided with OR work on their own projects. All projects are up to independent student imagination and will not follow specific instructions. Students will have the chance to ask questions, answer questions, describe what they are building and show their creations if they would like. I will provide the theme and engage students while they are building!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome! 
When students are interested in what they are doing, learning they will WANT to learn! I hope that your students will love to learn and become lifelong learners. I want all children to feel comfortable, engaged, encouraged and have fun in my classes I have worked with students from ages 0-14 for over 20 years. I have held several other jobs than teaching which I adored but at this point this is my passion. 

My teaching experience comes from multiple sources. Online I have taught thousands of children overseas to learn English through VIPKid. VIPKid (now VIPTeacher) is known for their vigorous standards and training. I have also taught for an elite online program, called Synthesis. Synthesis is an elite program created by the one of the founders of Ad Astra. (Ad Astra is the school that Elon Musk created at SpaceX.) I have also taught thousands of children right here on Outschool since 2020. 

Offline teaching experience comes from teaching at a Montessori pre-school, teaching swim and gym classes, summer camps and Sunday school. I also have taught students with a wide range of mental and physical abilities. All students are welcome in my classes and I am willing to make accommodations if requested. 

My education consists of a BA in psychology, a BA in Conflict Resolution, TESL, TEOFL, over 40 online teaching certificates, mental health first aid certification, and palliative care certification.

I have two children who are everything to me. I homeschool them and we love going on adventures together. In my spare time I love travelling, baking, camping, Disney, swimming, the beach, water activities, working out, reading and all things full of sparkle and glitter! You can always find me taking a course or earning some kind of certificate. 

Come join me and let's have an adventure together!
