Class Experience
This class will provide students the opportunity to increase their knowledge of world history.

I am a certified social studies teacher with over a decade of experience working with learners. I am certified in Missouri and Indiana to teach social studies to grades 5-12. *Social studies refers to American History, Geography, Government/Civics, Sociology, Psychology, and World History. I focus on individualizing lessons to meet the needs of learners, including those who struggling and/or students who need more challenge. I have a BA in Political Science, a MA in Secondary Education, and an Ed Spec degree in Educational Technology. I use technologies in effective and creative ways to enhance the learning process and increase motivation of learners. If a parent has any questions about my education and/or qualifications, I encourage them to message me.
If a student wants to learn more about a topic mentioned, I will recommend that they either look up the information using the suggested websites included in this listing, or suggest arranging an individual tutoring session with me.
Formative assessment through discussion
30 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Violent or graphic images or language will not be included or allowed. Topics will be share in the online classroom. I want to avoid things that would make any student uncomfortable. If a sensitive topic, marginalized group or other historical conversation of sensitive nature occurs, I will ensure the focus is on the historical event we are discussing, relying on the facts.
