Want your child to have an excellent base in all things STEM? Each week is an incredible class and exciting opportunities to learn, think, engineer, and invent! Each class is different, covering subjects like physics, engineering, space, NASA, architecture, biology, chemistry, and much more. Each class will begin with a lesson that includes talking, discussions, photos, and/or videos. We will spend about half the class discussing the subject of the week and the last part with a hands-on an experiment, design challenge, or inventing something new! Each child will use their own creativity, their imaginations, and their own engineering design process. Classes will be kept small, 7 children, so that the teacher can interact and help each student with their experiments or designs. These classes are designed for children of all abilities and are inclusive for those with disabilities, including those with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and learning disabilities. Children will not be expected to read or write in class. We will spend a big part of class designing, experimenting, and/or creating our items. Each child will create their own things through their imaginations and their own creative design. Please make sure to have supplies for class so the children can create/experiment! This can all be created with things from around the house! Please check the supply list. These classes are part lesson and part design, create, and/or experiment. Children learn best when they can use their hands and imagination! Join us in this fun class! Please note, a design will not be sent to your student, they will completely design their items using the things we will talk about in class. A PowerPoint is not used, but discussion, photos, videos, and other resources. *** Friday STEM classes may have a few less classes than the others because of holidays *** Week of January 6th: Let's build a sorting Machine- A lesson on gravity and laws on motion- Then we create our own machine! Week of January 13th- Let's talk natural disasters! Get ready for an earthquake! Week of Jan 20th-This week we will be thinking about rescue missions! We are going to be creating a device to help in our rescue efforts! Week of Jan 27th- This week for class we are going to create a loadbearing draw bridge! Get ready for a unique and different STEM challenge. Week of February 2nd- Egg drop with a twist! Get ready for the perfect plummet as we talk about energy! Classes are subject to change depending on the what the learners want and like!

Teacher expertise and credentials
2 Degrees
Master's Degree in Education from University of Houston at Clear Lake
Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of Houston at Clear Lake
I believe in igniting the fire for the love of learning and meeting children where they are at. I also believe the best way to learn is through play, hands on experiments, and having fun. My favorite things to teach are STEM, Math, facilitating safe gaming classes, and reading classes.
I attended University of Houston at Clear Lake and received my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education- Young Children with Disabilities and my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education- Children with Disabilities. I was the owner and founder of The Mind Body Lab, where I taught STEM, Art, and Yoga classes. I am also a private tutor.
I was the Assistant Director of Early Childhood camps for University of Houston at Clear Lake, and for 6 years I designed, developed, and implemented inclusive camps for young children. I have also taught a homeschool science classes at a local nature center, where I prepared lesson plans, wrote lessons that included STEM, and instructed an inclusive class.
I believe every child learns in a different way and the way I teach will reflect that. I plan my classes in a way where all learners needs are met, we do not all learn the same so I offer multiple ways to understand the subject.
I have homeschooled my children for the last 12 years. I am a first degree black belt and love everything martial arts!
My goal is to educate, include, enlighten, ignite, and help children explore this world.
