Class Experience

In this weekly, ongoing course, students will meet together and work on STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art Math) activities with “bricks!” Building with “bricks” has been proven to help develop fine motor skills, to encourage creative thinking, and to increase problem-solving skills and spatial awareness. 

Each class will be taught in a relaxed, uplifting atmosphere, where participation is encouraged and every learner has the chance to share. 

Each week there will be a basic theme or "challenge" that learners will be encouraged (but not required) to try. The first few weeks are listed below:

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in English from American Military University
Hello! I have been teaching and tutoring children from ages 2-24 for over 11 years now, at least four of which have been primarily with both the special needs and the autistic population. I have taught a large amount of subjects and materials locally and online, in small group settings, large classroom settings, at a charter school, at traditional schools, and at multiple Montessori schools as well. 

I have a BA in Literature and Creative Writing from American Military University, where I graduated with honors in the top 1% of my class in May 2010. I also have training in ABA as well. 

I am highly energetic and positive, and I make it my aim to always teach with kindness, courtesy, and respect, modeling the behaviors I hope to see and receive back from my students. I teach to each individual student on their own personal level and make learning fun by being adaptable, personal, and positive at all times.

I teach various types of art, creative writing, mathematics, cooking classes, life skills, study skills, fitness classes, rebounding (mini trampoline) classes, book club, study/test prep, healthy habits, the history of essential oils, practical life, one-on-one or small group tutoring, and more. I am also open to any suggestions or requests that anyone has as well. 

I LOVE cats and I have three that you will hear me talk about and that also try to get involved in my classes sometimes, too! My family and I also enjoy hiking, swimming, riding bikes, camping, and fishing.
