Seasonal Greetings Santa is a one-time class that teaches children how to write personal handwritten letters by writing a letter to Santa. We will practice formatting a letter, brainstorming information that goes into a letter, and organizing ideas in a way that makes sense. Students will independently write their letters based on the information shared during the brainstorming session. They can ask questions and participate in discussions during independent writing time.
Following the class, parents can choose to mail this letter to Santa if their country has a Santa address. Resources to find the address will be given, however, each learner will need to find the correct address for their country on their own.
For countries that don't have a letter to Santa address, an email address for Santa will be provided for students to email their letter with parental guidance.
In class we will:
- Introduce ourselves and our gift wish list.
- Brainstorm ideas for the letters to Santa.
- Format and write the letters.
- Close the class with students volunteering to read their letters if they are finished or discuss their favorite holiday traditions.
*Sections scheduled November - December unless otherwise requested.Other Details

Hello and Welcome!
My name is Caitlyn Teacher. It’s great to meet you!
***********************************
Dear Outschool families and learners,
I will be taking an indefinite break from Outschool as I am living abroad and unfortunately will not be able to continue teaching online for the time being. I truly enjoyed my time teaching on Outschool and hope to be able to start classes again one day.
Though I’ll be unable to teach on Outschool for a while, I will keep my profile open and can still be reached through Outschool messages!
Good luck in all your future classes and studies :)

***********************************
I have been volunteering and teaching in brick-and-mortar schools since 2013, and teaching online since 2021. I love teaching language arts (especially reading and writing), math, world cultures, K-Pop, and I am a huge fan of Disney. I want to share my passion for learning with students who have similar interests! I hope to encourage a passion for learning, inspire ideas for new interests and hobbies, and provide unique learning experiences for each student.
My classes cater to small group settings, with six or fewer learners in each class. This small group setting provides more opportunities for teacher-learner and learner-learner interactions. I structure my classes and lessons to encourage student discussion and interaction. There are many chances to ask and answer questions. The discussion questions are usually open-ended to allow learners to think creatively about an answer and lead to more personalized discussions.
I studied, trained, and became certified to be an elementary K-5 school teacher in America, then traveled abroad to teach English in Asia. I taught ESL to Korean middle and high schoolers for four years and finished a 120-hour young learners and teenagers TEFL/TESOL certification. While living in Asia, I took the opportunity to visit many countries and learn about new places and study new languages. I have been studying Korean since September 2017.
I look forward to when I can travel again! But from the comfort of home, I love still being able to connect with students all over the world through Outschool’s online classes!
I look forward to seeing you soon~
