55 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
Basic paper quilling techniques will taught verbally and through demonstration while the learners create their own water-themed animals: a frog, a goldfish, and a dolphin. A very brief history of quilling and paper will be verbally presented to the learners. I teach the quilling techniques while actively participating through verbal description and real-time demonstrations. No prior experience with or knowledge of quilling is required but these are slightly more challenging animals, therefore, experience is encouraged.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about quilling techniques and create these shapes to make a frog, goldfish, and dolphin. They will also learn a little about the history of quilling and paper.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I love paper and working with kids of all ages! I focus primarily on origami and quilling classes but occasionally I go a little outside of that "box" to teach something different, such as greeting card creation or working with unusual ways of using or making your paper.
I have been teaching in various capacities for over 20 years and with kids of a variety of ages from 1 year-olds to 18 year-olds. I also hold several degrees in child development and language acquisition.
I am continually inspired by teaching others and watching their ideas and creativity come to life and bring their own artistic capabilities to projects. I thoroughly enjoy hands-on learning as it's the best way of learning something new, even if it's learning that art form is not a good match for their interests and abilities. It's like trying a new food, I'd rather you try it and find out you don't like than to never try it and thus never know if you like it or not.
One fun thing about me I am also very musically inclined and if you can't find me either playing with paper or my family, I'm outside digging in the dirt in my garden.
