Class Experience

Hello everyone! 
This class is going to be so much fun! Each day we will start with introductions with show and tell. Students are welcome to bring anything they would like to show.  We will be hearing camp songs, making camping crafts and learning the basics of camping each day. If students prefer to watch and not participate in class that is totally fine. My class is relaxed, fun and no pressure. Please see below for an outline of what we will be doing each day and check the supply list for what we will need. If you do not have the supplies for the classes you are still welcome to join in and colour or just listen while we do the craft portion. 

Day One
Basics of Camping
Today we will talk about why we like to or want to go camping. We will also talk about camping supplies we need and prep you can do at home. We will talk about basics that we need and why they are important.

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!
