In this class, middle schoolers and rising high schooelrs will gain access to tips and tricks to transition into successful high school students. We will discuss the physical, emotional, social and educational changes and challenges expected during these years and how to tackle them. Awareness is step one to meeting challenges and we will look at how to emerge successful, and not stressful, during these trying years of growth and maturity. Using a poweerpoint slideshow, socratic seminar style discussion and open dialgue, the students are encouraged to share their fears and anxieties (if they choose to), while the teacher addresses their concerns and provides startegies to be successful in high school and beyond.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I'm Shaheen and I look forward to meeting you all virtually. I've been teaching language arts and the humanities for over 25 years in public, private and charter schools to elementary, middle and high school students. I also homeschool my own four children, and I am an education consultant for other homeschooling families. My expertise is in teaching the humanities and literature classes for middle and high school aged kids. I offer classes in the Socratic Seminar style for kids as young as 4th graders. Holding an M.S. in Education and a certification in teaching ESL, I am happy to bring the love of learning to your kids.
My goals, with teaching students, are to make them life long learners and passionate about education. I enjoy teaching poetry, literature, logic and the classics and I hope to pass this love of language on to my students! Reviews
