Class Experience

I understand that sometimes it can be tough to stay motivated and productive, especially when you're a kid with a long to-do list and lots of distractions. That's why I want to introduce you to a class that can help: Planned Timers - Rapid Fire Productivity To Help Kids Master Daily Essentials.

Through this class, we'll work together to come up with 15+ ideas for 2-3 minute timers that can help you stay focused and motivated to plow through your daily essentials and priorities. Whether it's picking out your clothes for tomorrow or using a timer to stay on track with your personal hygiene routine, these timers will make a big difference in your day-to-day life. 

I know that everyone learns differently, so we'll make sure to tailor the timers to your unique needs and preferences and don't worry - if you're feeling overwhelmed or uncertain about how to get started, we'll work together to come up with a plan that feels manageable and achievable. 

At the end of class, my goal is to help you feel empowered and in control of your time and your tasks. By using timers to segment your time into manageable intervals, you'll be able to enhance your focus, productivity, and sense of accomplishment. So let's get started and I'll show you how to have a whole lot of fun operating at your personal best!

Parental Guidance
After class, if learners don't have access to another option, they may ask for guidance in using the NON-cooking timer features on a microwave or oven.
Supply List
A writing utensil and a piece of paper. 

Additionally, kids love showing off their timers in class, so if your learner has one prior to class, I welcome them to show us! 

Here are a few examples: 

-two-minute sand timer
-egg timer
-kitchen timer
-watch
-dial timer
-clock with alarm

Some kids use a variety of microwave timers, oven timers, cell phone timers, timers on YouTube, Aexa, Google Home, etc. All are appropriate, and after class, they will be looking around for their options if they don't have one already in place.

I am the office manager for a multi-million dollar real estate firm my mom built from the ground up while I was homeschooled. I grew up as a real estate kid and have owned and currently own investment properties. I manage multiple teams, am a workerbee, and love to travel.

I love seeing my children's unique needs and interests and placing them into the perfect class for our needs.
