In this one-time class, learners will learn the simple basics of different molecules and properties while observing this with an easy experiment using milk, cotton swabs, soap and food coloring. Kids can't get enough of this super-simple science experiment. It’s easy and safe enough for kids of all ages, and uses only ingredients you already have in the kitchen. The end result is an explosion of colors, and it almost looks like magic! We will make the colorful experiment from start to swirling colors and talk about our results and observations. Why do the colors burst? The secret is in the tiny drop of dish soap, which we will talk about, along with the soap properties. All learners are welcome. No experience necessary. Learners can practice experimenting independently with safe ingredients. While public speaking is highly encouraged, it is okay for learners to listen, if not comfortable. I can’t wait to see you all in the classroom.
Learning Goals
Students will practice experimenting on their own with simple household items, while sharing their creation and observations with the teacher and other learners. Public speaking will be practiced, as well as, learning to listen and taking turns to speak. Science terminology will be reviewed, appropriate for the age group.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Columbia University
Hello!
My name is Ms. Stephenie. I have been teaching various subjects for over 28 years. Although I had a few major career changes, the one thing that never changed was my passion for teaching anyone who wants to learn.
While I have a Biomedical Engineering degree from Columbia University, my students also come to me to learn non-STEM subjects, test taking strategies, music and more.
I have taught basic introduction to advanced levels in various subjects, such as math (Singapore Math, Algebra, Pre-Calc, and etc.), sciences (biology, earth science, chemistry, physics), medical/dental subjects, STEAM/STEM topics, language arts, history, languages (Mandarin Chinese, ESL), test prep (SAT, SSAT, SHSAT, ACT, AP, MCAT, DAT, COGAT/OLSAT, NYS Regents, and etc.), robotics/coding, interviewing skills (former interviewer), public speaking, and music (former competitive piano and violin player) 🎶 . I teach music theory to beginner students of all ages in fun interactive ways and have helped them with their music auditions.
As an Educational Consultant, private admissions consultant, teacher, tutor, a stay-at-home mother, PTO mom, basketball, baseball/softball and field hockey Coach, Robotics Coach, NJ FTC/FRC Judge and Girl Scout Troop Leader, I am passionate in guiding students to try new things, be successful in what they do and to help them accomplish their personal goals, whether it is to learn how to play tennis, or to bake cookies made from scratch, to scoring high on their college admissions exams. I enjoy what I do and always find teaching to be the best part of my day. I also love teaching my own two kids, so I understand what kind of classes kids will enjoy and learn from.
With the current technology and virtual platform, my students come from all over the world. And I also enjoy learning from my students, as not one student is alike and can teach me so much about their culture, interests and experience. There’s always so much to learn from each other. And I strongly encourage the love of learning. So let’s begin this journey together!
I am happy to try to accommodate your busy schedules, so please feel free to reach out if there is a class of interest you would like to attend, and we can work out a schedule together!
I can’t wait to see you in my classrooms!
