Class Experience

US Grade 5 - 8
Beginner Level
What will be taught? I will teach the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics in a highly engaging manner that is fun and includes a viewpoint that explains how to successfully study mathematics and enjoy it. 

What topics will you cover?  Multiplication, Division, Fractions, Percentages, Exponents, Scientific Notation, graphing, formulas and everything which is listed on the Common Core Standards for Math Grades 5-8

How is your class structured?  Each class period we will cover a required lesson. I will recommend students to watch videos and practice that lesson. 

How will you teach? I will teach using Universally Designed, Evidence based teaching technology to ensure every student can accomplish basic skills of mathematics for grades 5-8

What's your teaching style?  For each individual skill: 1. Explain why they need to learn it 2. Explain in detail what will be learned 3. Show them how to do it, 4. Do it with them 5. Have them practice n their own independently. 

How much will learners get to interact with you (mention specifics like: lecture, games, slides, video clips, discussion)? I am highly engaged with students throughout the duration of the class. 10 minutes to explain, 5 minutes showing how it is done and the remainder of the period is spent practicing the skill using games and fun engaging experiences.

Learning Goals

Students will learn to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions
Students will learn to figure percentages swiftly

Teacher expertise and credentials
California Teaching Certificate in Special Education
Hi, It's a pleasure to meet you! I am Ms. Tara, Education Specialist. I attended Tufts University and then completed my Special Education teaching certification at Northridge University in California. Also, I come from a 200 year family history of Math, English grammar and composition teachers as well as music teachers and I have been teaching for many years myself, online and in person classes. I am very skilled at teaching online. Having taught students in every grade from K through 12, I know the requirements to graduate high school and be prepared for the world.  I've made countless videos to help my students learn different subjects and I've even written several novels for teens and young adults to provide educational literature that inspires new writers. I love teaching especially STEM and STEAM subjects! My Motto is "Every Student wants to Learn!" Since I'm new to Outschool, be sure to tell me what you need - that way I can be of the best service. 
Warmly, Ms Tara 
Sample review:
