Class Experience

MTG game night is a weekly social meet-up for all players that love to play Magic: The Gathering.  Using the zoom breakout rooms, players will be paired / grouped by skill level to ensure all games are fun and evenly matched.  I will be available to help learners with rules, strategy or to play with the group.  This is meant to be an interactive social experience for kids that enjoy playing MTG and during this time where social interaction is at a minimum, I hope this meet-up can help with that.  
Some experience playing is necessary, and a basic understanding of the rules is needed, but there will be ample opportunities to learn new rules, and develop as a player too.  

All players will need to bring their own deck with them to the meet-up. 
Please ensure you have at least one standard deck available, you can bring other decks (e.g. Commander), but they can only be used if there is another learner who can play that deck type as well.  It is usually very easy to find another player who has a commander deck available.

Hope you see you soon at the table!

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello Everyone,

My name is Matt and I am have been teaching middle and high school STEM classes for 15 years in Ontario, Canada.  In 2009, I was also lucky enough to have the opportunity to teach Science classes at an international school in Kuwait for two years.

My educational background is in Zoology and Evolutionary Biology (B.Sc) where I focused intensively on herpetology (the study of reptiles and amphibians).   I have worked at several zoos over the years (in the education and conservation departments) often planning public outreach educational programming related to reptiles and other animals. 
 
I also have a Master's of Education in Global Leadership and I am passionate about teaching science and connecting the concepts we learn to real-life.  The PD that I have focused on over the last 5 years has included high level project based learning concepts which I used in my classes extensively.  

I currently teach middle school science and AP level Biology at an independent school outside of Toronto, Canada.  My educational philosophy is rooted in hands-on and experiential education.  I always ensure that my classes have a large experiential component to them and students are actively involved in the class.  I am a huge supporter of problem solving in the classroom and very often use the design thinking process to facilitate learning, no matter what topic we are studying.   

Over the course of my teaching career, I have been awarded the "Innovation in Pedagogy" Award from the BHNCDSB as well as the Teaching Travel Grant Award (which I used to study Permaculture in Argentina).

I hope to see you in class soon!
Matt
