In my Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class, Learners will learn how to make pie crust from scratch, along with a Classic Pumpkin Pie and a Caramel Apple Pie. My Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple pie class will meet a total of three consecutive times times, from November 22, 2020 through November 24, 2020.. Each of the three class times will meet from 3:00 p.m. - 4:50 p.m. CST. Each class will be 110 minutes. This should allow students ample time to make pie crust during the first and second classes, and allow time to bake pies during the second and third classes. Learners will be taught how to make homemade pie crust from scratch, along with a Classic Pumpkin Pie, and a Caramel Apple Pie. Learners will also learn how to make a lattice crust top for the Caramel Apple Pie. I will make sure Learners have a supply list, a shopping list, and a copy of the recipes before the Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class begins. My class will be very structured, in that we will follow each cookie recipe's steps, as they are listed. I will begin class by teaching learners the correct precautions to take while handling food items, i.e. washing hands, making sure loose clothing is secured, making sure hair is pulled back out of the way, and making sure learners are prepared to learn how to make pie crusts and a pumpkin and a caramel apple pie. My teaching style in cooking classes is to demonstrate each step of the recipe, and make sure learners are following along. I will field any questions from learners as the class progresses. We will discuss the recipe itself, the recipe steps, and the finished product. Learners do not need to have any prior cooking experience to take this class. However, each learner should know how to turn on the oven in their respective home kitchens, and know how to use an electric hand mixer. Learners should know how to use a serrated knife. Learners must also know how to set a timer in order to monitor the bake time for each pie. Learners should print the included shopping list and recipes before Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class begins. Learners should also read each of recipes for Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class. Learners should have all of the utensils, equipment, and ingredients set out for each day's recipe ready to use 10 minutes before each class. Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie classes will meet on the following days and times: Sunday, November 22, 2020 at 3:00 p.m.-4:45 p.m., CST: We'll learn how to make Pie C rust during this class. Monday, November 23, 2020 at 3:00 p.m.- 4:45 p.m., CST. We'll learn how to make Pumpkin Pie during this class. Tuesday, November 24, 2020 at 3:00 p.m.-4:45 p.m., CST. We'll learn how to make Caramel Apple Pie during this class. It is the goal of Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class that each Learner who enrolls will learn how to not only make pie crust, but also a classic pumpkin pie and a caramel apple pie. Learners will begin Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class by learning proper kitchen safety measures. Learners will first learn how to make an all-purpose pie crust. Next, Learners will learn how to make and bake a Classic Pumpkin Pie from Scratch. Lastly, Learners will learn how to make a Caramel Apple Pie with a lattice top. Students will learn how to properly store pie crust for immediate use as well as future use, and will learn how to properly store both the Classic Pumpkin Pie and the Caramel Apple Pie. I'm a highly-skilled home cook. I've been cooking for over 35 years. I began learning how to cook at an early age with my mother, grandmother, and aunts. I've made each of the recipes included in the Pie Crust, Pumpkin Pie, and Caramel Apple Pie class many times, and can teach your learner how to do so safely. I have 14 years of experience teaching teenagers, as I am a former junior high and high school teacher of both Spanish I and English. As such, I am experienced at guiding older tweens and teenage students through lessons.

You may use one type of these apples for the Caramel Apple Pie, or use a combination of these types of apples for the pie.

Teacher expertise and credentials
¡Hola! Me llamo Holly Showalter, y yo soy una profesora de español.
My name is Holly Showalter. I will be teaching Spanish Level I classes on Outschool. I have BSE degrees in both Spanish and English from Arkansas State University. I am formerly certified K-12 in Spanish and English. I have fourteen years of experience teaching Spanish I in both high school and junior high.
I will be teaching Level I Spanish. It’s my favorite subject to teach. I thoroughly enjoy guiding teens as they learn Spanish. I believe that learning Spanish I should be engaging and fun. I also believe that teens should learn a World Language, no matter which one.
I'll also be teaching cooking classes on Outschool. I'll be sharing many recipes, and especially ones that are my family's favorites.
