This is a 4 week class for beginning photographers! Students will be taught a short lesson each week and then be assigned weekly photo challenges that will spark their imaginations and test their creative skills. Students are encouraged to inspire each other through their photo creations by sharing the photos they took each week in the classroom so they can discuss them. 

The following photo challenges will be assigned:
1. Creating Point of Interest, Rule of Thirds
2. Framing, Symmetry & Leading Lines
3. Big/Small & Perspective, Focus
4. Portrait Mode & Contrast/Colors

Students are expected to participate in homework and uploading photos each week because a big part of our time together is sharing our photos and hearing about their photo creations.

Students are strongly encouraged/expected to participate in the discussions with each other. There will be some videos and presentations that the teacher will use for class weekly. Teacher is approachable, energetic and engaging! 

The only experience is to have taken pictures with your camera before. This can be any type of camera you would like to use, i.e., a phone camera, point and shoot, etc are all welcome. Technical training on particular cameras is NOT a part of this class, however, specific questions can be answered as needed.

Metas de aprendizaje

Students will learn how to create pleasing photos in this class by learning about the subject, framing, and using rules of composition.

Otros detalles

Orientación para padres

The teacher uses YouTube to show a few clips of videos to support the student's learning. The videos are embedded in a presentation created by the teacher via Spark/Adobe. Sometimes the videos are also posted in the classroom. No ads are shown during the clips. The videos are age appropriate to speak directly to the learner specifically about the teaching point.

Lista de útiles escolares

A camera of any brand or style. I just recommend that it be easy for your child to use and something your child has already used before this class. I do not teach about the camera other than just the basics in this class.

Recursos externos

Los estudiantes no necesitarán utilizar ninguna aplicación o sitio web más allá de las herramientas estándar de Outschool.

Florida Certificado de Docencia en Educación elemental

Licenciatura desde Bethel University (College), Mishawaka, IN

Hello & Welcome! My name is Alyssa Chirch and I am your learner's Photography teacher!

WHAT I TEACH
During the school year, I offer full curriculum courses in photography for middle school and high school students, and 1:1 tutoring for photography. I teach in the evenings during the school year and have daytime or evening camps, groups, and tutoring in the summer. Grades can be given for full curriculum courses as requested.

MY BACKGROUND AND EDUCATION
Currently, I am a family photographer in South Florida and I teach 4th grade at a Christian school. 

I love photography, have a family photography business, and have been teaching photography on Outschool since 2019. I have taught virtually or in-person for over 12 years in various subjects. In that time, I have taught English, Spelling, Reading, Physical Education, Praise Dance, Ballet, and Bible. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Bible & Ministry from Bethel College in Mishawaka, IN. I also have my temporary teacher certificate in the state of Florida for elementary education and am working toward my permanent licensure.

I have worked in the social work field with people with disabilities, as an employment specialist, and as a foster parent recruiter. These experiences have prepared me to work with all levels and abilities as well as helped me develop patience and compassion for my students so they feel safe and encouraged in my classes.

WHY & HOW I TEACH
My philosophy behind teaching is that I want every student to feel welcome and open to share in my classes. I want to create a place where the students feel comfortable interacting with each other as well as with me. I think it’s really great when the students help each other in class as well.  I am very interactive and ask for feedback from my students to support their learning. This feedback can be verbal responses to questions about learning, sharing their photos and answering questions about them, or sharing what they like about certain concepts discussed in class. I also give positive encouragement and constructive criticism to help them in the learning process. 

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
In my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my family to experience new places. Most recently we have been exploring South Florida, since we moved here from small-town Indiana in 2019. My husband and I have 5 kids, 3 are grown and 2 are still at home. I have kids with special needs, as well, which continues to prepares me to work with all sorts of learners. I love to draw and paint as a hobby and play with our 2 beloved cats, Felix & Marie (Disney names, if you know-you know). Fun fact about me, I love to exercise and explore health-related concepts to stay in good health.
