Welcome! Here is our story: We have a mission to help the squishmallows escape from a bad situation! They have been kidnapped by a kid who treats them pretty badly! So, they’re going to escape to squishmallow paradise! Where eventually they were be adopted by other kids who will treat them wonderfully! Can you help rescue them? Course Overview: At the beginning of class, Students will have the chance to share their squishmallows (if they have any) or simply share about their day! Then, students will follow a fictional story where they will help rescue some squismallows from a house. Students will work together solving riddles, codes and looking for hidden keys to escape. How does this virtual escape room work? There are two parts to this escape room. Each part has a time limit and a task (such as figuring out a number code). If the tasks are not complete within their time limit, I will give students the answer, and we'll move on to the next part. The first 10 minutes of our session will be spent socializing and sharing. Then, during the next 5 minutes we will go over class expectations and how the escape room works! Finally, we will spend the rest of the session on the actual Escape room :) Note: I will guide the whole session. We will do the escape room together to avoid disorganization. However, I will not be helping students as much as guiding them through the process.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their critical thinking skills, social skills, and confidence.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of Houston-Downtown
Hello! Thank you for considering me :)
My name is Stephanie.

My background:
I have a bachelor's degree in education from the university of Houston-Downtown in Texas, and a TEFL certification. I have been on Outschool for the past three years and worked with students ranging from 3-18 years of age. I used to work with two different ESL Companies, as well as a therapy clinic for children with autism and ADHD. I teach English, Spanish, and other topics that I am passionate about.
What I do:
I have specialized in the art of creating/running escape rooms. I enjoy tying these escape rooms with educational topics! They help students build their social skills, critical/logical thinking skills, and confidence. Plus, students get the opportunity to learn and talk about topics they love!
What I believe in:
I believe that encouragement, patience, and freedom of expression are essential in every classroom. It's no secret that students learn differently, and that education is the key to the future. So, I want to make sure every student is comfortable in class, has their needs met, and has an equal opportunity to speak/participate!
How I got into education:
My journey in becoming a teacher began when I was a lot younger and would babysit my neighbors' kids. I often helped them out with their homework assignments and slowly realized that I enjoyed doing so. I had always been told by my peers and my family that I should consider being a teacher but, I had never given it a second thought until my senior year of high school when I had a fantastic teacher who completely changed my life. From that moment, I was inspired to become a teacher and do the same for others.
I look forward to positively impacting your child :)
Some things I love:
• I love to read! (Some of my favorite books include Harry potter and Wings of fire)
• I love video games! (Especially Nintendo games!)
• My Favorite movie is "Encanto"
Thanks for reading, I am excited to see you in class!!!Reviews
