50 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
Ready to get super excited to draw super heroes? Join our winter series as we draw unique heroes inspired by the Christmas season. Traditionally, Santa, reindeers, gingerbread men and more have not been seen as super heroes, but we are going to change that. Students of all drawing abilities are able to enjoy this class as the super heroes are drawn using basic shapes. In this 45-minute drawing class, students will create unique Gingerbread Heroes & Villains in a Christmas scene from a comic book. In each class, students will look at the example drawing of the Christmas super hero (drawn by Teacher MoMo). Next, students will receive step by step visual instructions while they draw along with me, Teacher MoMo. Students will focus on using basic shapes and letters to create the winter setting and character. Students are encouraged to use their imagination to personalize their characters and art piece. In the last 5-15 minutes of class, students will color their picture. At the end of each class, student will have a created their own super hero picture. To personalize the super hero, students will name their characters, give them super powers, create unique logos, and decide the background settings. Students may wear their super hero clothing/masks to class. Superhero Drawing Series: Super Reindeer, Super Santa, Super Elf, GingerBread Heroes & Villain, Super Mrs. Claus
Learning Goals
Students will practice drawing characters in a basic super hero cartoon style inspired by the great super heroes of contemporary time. Students will use critical and creative thinking skills to give each character a unique image and profile.

I am passionate about teaching appreciation of our world's cultures, societies, and people in a fun and engaging way that will spark a lifelong curiosity about our global community and a desire to be active and productive community members. I would like to work with learners from 6 to 18 years old. I have a degree in Sociology from UCLA, visited more than 30 countries, and lived/taught in five countries. I love to explore our global community from teas to art to traditional clothing.
Since 2005, I have taught English as a foreign language. I have taught in Asia, Central America, South America and North America. I have taught all age levels from young learners to middle school students to college students. For the past five years, I have been teaching English online to very young learners in China.
I believe learning should be fun, interactive and relevant to students' lives. Students should be inspired and encouraged to be active learners and full participants in developing their knowledge of the world.
On a personal note, I have two big dreams that I'm pursuing now. The first is to live in London for a year as a writer. Because of the Covid pandemic, I am not sure when this will happen. The second is to publish The Next Great American Novel. (I have a Master's degree in Nonfiction Writing from USC.)
