How is your class structured? The class is structured as a quick, self-paced mini lesson. It begins with a brief introduction, followed by step-by-step guidance on setting up a Kanban board. The lesson concludes with practical tips and examples to help learners apply what they’ve learned. How will you teach? I will teach using a combination of narrated slides, visual examples, and clear, step-by-step instructions. The lesson is designed to be engaging and easy to follow, with a focus on practical application. What's your teaching style? My teaching style is enthusiastic and supportive. I aim to make learning fun and accessible, especially for teens who are looking to improve their organizational skills. I focus on breaking down concepts into manageable steps and providing clear examples to ensure understanding. How much will learners get to interact with you? As this is a self-paced mini lesson, direct interaction is limited. Learners are encouraged to reach out with any questions or for additional guidance by sending a message to me via the Outschool messaging system. The lesson itself includes practical applications of the learning via setting up their own Kanban board.

For paper Kanban boards (optional): Poster boards and sticky notes work well if your learner wants to display their board. Digital Kanban board (optional): I recommend Trello because it is free and easy to access.
