🚨🚨Late enrollments DON'T WORRY: 🚨🚨
Don't worry about missing any class content if you enroll late—instead, consider it an opportunity to dive straight into action! Your learner won't be left behind; there will be engaging videos ready and waiting for them to watch as soon as they join the class. "Enrolling late" is the perfect way to kickstart their learning journey and get them started on lessons today!

🙌🏻 What does "Flexible Schedule" mean and why is it great for this class? 
This Flexible Schedule class has🚫 no live meetings! 🚫 Recorded lessons and conversation-starters/assignments will be posted to the virtual classroom on Outschool.com for the students to enjoy at their own pace and per their own schedule! Each lesson includes an interactive element, that encourages the student to type a response after watching the week's lesson. I strive for supportive interactions with my students and the adults in their lives. Please feel free to message me with any questions you have about the class.

🙌🏻 Reasons a FLEX class may be a better option for your student than a LIVE class:
1.) You do not have to worry about/deal with poor internet connection, other students' behavior, schedule conflicts, etc.!
2.) You can watch the videos whenever you want to! Then, you can re-watch the videos whenever you want to! Pause, skip, back up, slow down, speed up, replay! You go at your own pace! 
3.) There is MORE TIME between classes so you can digest the information, ask questions, PRACTICE, & relax!

📒NOTE: this class is scheduled to last 8 weeks, however, please message me if you'd like to discuss options to expedite the timeline! I completely understand and will do whatever I can to accommodate your request.

Teacher expertise and credentials

Welcome, I'm thrilled to share a bit about myself with you. I wear many hats, but at the heart of it all, I'm a passionate educator and enthusiast of all things Dungeons and Dragons, math, reading, spelling, vocabulary, history, Lego, and gaming.

Teaching and Learning: My journey as an educator has been a thrilling adventure starting when I joined the Army in 1995 where I instructed thousands of students throughout my 27 year career. I'm dedicated to helping students explore the fascinating world of knowledge. Whether it's demystifying the intricate mechanics of D&D, making math engaging and accessible, fostering a love for literature, or delving into the rich tapestry of history, I relish every moment spent in the classroom or at the gaming table.

Values and Beliefs: In all aspects of my life, I hold dear to certain core values. Responsibility, compassion, respect, diversity, and perseverance are the guiding principles that shape my interactions with others and my approach to teaching. I firmly believe that instilling these values in young minds is just as important as the subjects I teach.

Hobbies and Interests: When I'm not deep into the world of education and gaming, you can find me outdoors, enjoying a game of cornhole. It's a perfect way to unwind and connect with friends and family. Just like in my teaching, I value the spirit of competition and camaraderie in every game.

Join Me in This Journey: I invite you to explore my profile, where I'll be sharing my knowledge, insights, and experiences in all the domains I'm passionate about. Whether you're a student seeking to enhance your skills or a parent/caregiver searching for a class, you'll find valuable resources here.

Thank you for stopping by, and feel free to reach out with any questions, suggestions, or just to say hello. Let's embark on this learning adventure together!
