Class Experience

Beginner - Intermediate Level
Minecraft is one of the most popular games that can be found on almost every single gaming system.  It is a sandbox game that allows players to create what they can imagine.   This game came out in 2009 and has continued to evolve and make gameplay better and better.  The game draws in players from all age range groups, but kids love playing it.  It allows them the freedom to build anything their heart desires and gives them fun gameplay both alone and with friends.  The game starts with the player spawning into the world and then you have to build a shelter and not get attacked by monsters every night, and then end it by fighting a dragon!  The gameplay in this game is never-ending. 

This class is designed to help new players learn how to survive from the very beginning of the game. It can be overwhelming for new players to learn everything that is available in the game because there are so many new things added every year!  Students will be encouraged to build their own homes and help with farming, mining, fishing, making potions, ranching, battling monsters and so much more! 

 Learners will learn how to survive with some help from me.  I want learners to become confident with themselves and if they are not ready to fight monsters, then I will not require them to do so.  

When learners enter class I will give them a gift of a stone sword and pickaxe, but will help them along the way to gather food, and other goods to survive.  I will help them build a house if they want one.  I have teleportation on so I can find students any time I need to, plus I have keep inventory on.  I want students to focus on learning the game and not worry about losing their stuff. 
Learners will learn how to fight monsters (when they are ready), plant farms, build houses, make potions, create armor and tools, dig out ores, and much more.  Learners are encouraged to help each other when they can but are not required to, but are asked to be respectful to each other in and outside of class.  

 They are encouraged to keep playing at home when they are allowed and create their own world.  

This class is a multiplayer game and most of the time learners will play with other learners.  I do offer private lessons for learners to have more one on one time with me and get to know the controls and game better.  If you are interested in private lessons please email me and as about times and pricing.  

I do not own the rights to this game, learners are required to own the game and play it on their own devices.  I rarely share my screen during class.  This class is designed only as a stepping stone to help kids learn the game, this class is intended to help kids connect with others and learn to play the game.


*********************************
LATE/MISSED CLASS POLICY
All courses will begin on time as long as one learner is in the classroom. If no students are in the classroom at the assigned class time, the teacher will leave a message on the discussion board and exit after 10 minutes. No refunds for missed classes per Outschool's policy.  

*********************************
SCHEDULE REQUESTS/PRIVATE LESSONS
I can respond directly to schedule requests! Please send me a message and I will try to accommodate your request.  I also will accommodate the desire for private lessons, please message me about times and fees. 

*********************************
SIBLINGS:
If you have more than one learner enrolled in the class, each learner that wants to participate must be enrolled to be fair to other students participating. Enrolled siblings are always welcome to share a screen during class. 

*********************************
REFUNDS & TRANSFERS:
Per Outschool's limited refund policy: "Full refund within 24 hours of purchase or up to a week in advance of the class.", missed appointments do not qualify for a refund. I will be glad to transfer your learner to another section but require 24 hours notice.


Ongoing classes:
If a student needs to skip a week, please unsubscribe from the class and then resubscribe when you need to join again as the student is taking a spot in the class.  Please make sure you unsubscribe within 24 hours of payment on Sunday to ensure your refund.   

For On-Going Private classes: 
  If a student is late to class I will wait the required 10 minutes, unless contacted before class stating the student will be late.  

*Refund/Transfer Policy*
Per Outschool policy, there are no refunds for missed classes. I will be glad to transfer your learner to another section but require 24 hours notice. This timing is necessary to fill the spot you are vacating. If I transfer you on short notice, I may not be able to fill your original spot, which means you are taking up two spots but only paying for one.

Learning Goals

Students should be able to start and live in their own world by the end of the class and understand the basics of the game.
