If you don't see a time or date that works for you, you can either message me or send in a time request and I'll see what I can do! Students should expect to have a fun time with others while competing with each other. I will teach-back and forth communication skills, how to stay positive when things don't go our way, and teamwork. This class is learner-directed so the topics might change based on the skill level that the learners have or game-based topics they want to discuss. I love Fall Guys and talking about Fall Guys! I've had it since a month after its release and played it all the time since then, loving every new mode and update. (Please note that Fall Guys is cross-platform, so any device that is able to run Fall Guys is usable in this class! Please also have any updates available downloaded before class.) Week 1: Students will introduce themselves, set up fall guys to join the private party, and practice back and forth communication while playing. Prompts will be given to keep conversations going as well as how to navigate the game if needed. Students will be working together in "Squads Show" to learn sportsmanship skills. Week 2: Students will be given an ice-breaker question before class and then join the private party for gameplay where they will continue practicing their communication and social skills in "Squad Shows". Week 3: Students will discuss their customized character, any features they've changed, and why they chose that. We will join the private party for gameplay where they will continue practicing their communication and social skills in "Squad Shows". Week 4: Students will discuss their favorite mini-games and the reasons why. We will join the private party for gameplay where they will continue practicing their communication and social skills in "Squads Show". Disclaimer: The weekly summary can change as this is a learner-directed class so the topics change depending on what is happening in-game, whether that be updates to the game or actual gameplay. All the classes that I teach, I bring a positive and competitive mindset and exhilarating energy to my classroom. The majority of this class will be spent playing Fall Guys and using our communication skills (I will provide prompting and help guide students with participation when needed).

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi there, I'm Teacher Michael and I'm happy to see you on my profile page! I love teaching students of all ages about social skills that involve gaming and anime.
Since 2012, I have volunteered and am currently participating with the Special Olympics working with ages 8 and older. In 2016, I completed a social skills training program run by the University of Central Florida. Through my local school, I tutored students ages 6-12 in math, reading, science, social studies, and writing skills in 2018. I currently belong to several social clubs in my area where I work with youth ages 14-18.
My passion is creating an environment where students can openly discuss their favorite topics without the barriers of a traditional school setting. When children play together they build confidence, stay active through movement, practice motor skills and develop learning skills. With my years of experience working with youth, I will be able to mentor and teach students while playing games and practicing life skills.
I am Autistic and have ADHD. I feel I can relate to students with and without disabilities because most learners are looking for a way to express themselves in a safe environment without fear of negativity. Outschool is the perfect platform for those that need a little help or that want a class that lets you be you! I want to show my learners that education can be fun and engaging without being overwhelming.
