What's included
Homework
2-4 hours per week. Homework is assigned weekly. The format will vary depending on the week's topic. Students must complete the required weekly homework by the deadline. The teacher will review the work and email all comments and corrections.Assessment
Students will complete periodic quizzes and one final course test. Test taking is an important part of study skills, so the final test is weighted heavily.Grading
This is a graded class. All students will receive a numeric grade.Class Experience
Many students struggle with time management, organization, and comprehension. What many of them don’t realize is that these traits are skills that must be learned and practiced. This online, multi-week course will present students with tips and techniques for improving their time management and organization. This class will also teach students how to read textbooks and how to take notes efficiently. Students will also learn how to study for tests and how to take various types of tests. Students who complete this class will have the tools for successful academic futures. It is up to them to USE those tools! Online learners will engage in interactive online lessons and weekly assessments or assignments. In addition, students will interact with other students and the teacher via weekly discussion forums and activities. Students have one week to complete the weekly lesson activities. All work should be completed by the weekly due date. Students will email their homework to the teacher and she will review their work and reply with suggestions and comments. This class runs “asynchronously” (participants to do not need to be online at a specific time each week), but there are due dates for lessons and assignments since this is an important part of study skills. There is no live Zoom portion to this class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Woodside Learning Center offers online classes for homeschooled students and those in traditional schools. We aim to provide small, personal classes that help students remember the joy of learning. Currently, we offer courses for students in grades 3-12 in creative writing, research papers, personal finance, study skills, SAT prep, and college admissions essays.
Every student approaches education with different strengths and experiences. As a result, learning is an individual challenge for each of us. Our goal is to help students harness their strengths, push beyond their weaknesses, and learn that challenge is not a bad thing. Most of all, we want them to remember that learning can be fun!
