In this ongoing class, we will discuss the greatest players in NFL history, the best teams, coaches, and unforgettable moments that every true football fan should know. We will cover new players/teams each week (See schedule below), focusing on the biographies, careers, and statistics of the players. We will discuss teams' biggest moments - both successes and failures, trivia, interesting stories about the subject, and how they impacted and influenced the sport. This class will be a fun, knowledge-filled experience for any pro football fan, especially those interested in the history of the game. This course will consist of a lecture, often containing video/audio clips, followed by student discussion, and analysis. Your child will come away with a greater understanding and appreciation of the NFL's past, and more knowledge with which to better enjoy the game in the future.

Hello and welcome!
My name is Benjamin Edwards, and I love to teach.
I have a bachelor's degree in history with a minor in education. I worked for eleven years with children ages 3-16 at a recreation center and YMCA in my hometown. I then taught for three years in middle and high schools. I've spent the last four years teaching online to students worldwide. I work best with students in the 9-18 age range.
While I have many interests that I enjoy sharing with my students - American pop culture, music of the 1980s, 20th century films, reading the classics, teaching guitar, playing chess -
my passion is HISTORY. I live to share my knowledge of the past, its role in shaping modern culture, and the challenge of bringing the people and places back to life in the mind of a student.
I believe that the student should not just learn the material, but begin to love to learn the material, looking forward to each class and leaving them wanting to learn more on their own about the subject after class has ended. I believe that one of the essentials of a great teacher is connecting the past to the present in the lives of their students.
My courses will consist of short lectures, often containing video/audio clips, followed by student discussion and analysis.
I'm excited about the opportunity to share my knowledge, and I look forward to meeting your child and beginning an educational adventure together!
