Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 12
This course explores the culture, science, and mythology of Hawaii and its people, by comparing it to the fictional region of Alola in the Pokémon universe, and the Pokémon found in this region. For more details on what we'll cover in each lesson, take a look at the syllabus.

This is a self-paced course; each lesson contains one recording (each 23-28 minutes long) plus extension activities to expand your learning beyond the recording. All extension activities are optional and at the discretion of the parent. 

Need a discount? Sure thing! All of my flex courses are "pay what you can afford." To get the discount you need, sign up for the course first, then message me with the discount you would like, and I will apply a partial refund. This must be done before the end of the first week of class.

🎓 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 🎓
From 2005 to 2021 I was a highly certified teacher in Arizona, in Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies. (I allowed my teaching license to lapse after becoming employed by the University of Arizona.) I have a Bachelor of Science in Earth and Space Science Education. I have four children ranging from 9 to 14 years of age. Besides teaching on Outschool, I am an advisor and educational outreach coordinator at the University of Arizona, and I also run my own small business giving astronomy shows in an inflatable planetarium for libraries and schools. In my spare time, I like to hike with my family, go on road trips, and volunteer with the Crisis Text Line (an organization that helps at-risk teens and young adults work through difficult situations).

Most of my classes come with projects or extension activities your child can do at home. Because every family situation is different, all of these activities and assignments are optional and at the discretion of the parent.
