💥 For more scheduled classes, please scroll down to “Show Alternative Times.” They say that cats were once worshipped as gods and goddesses - and they've never forgotten. And isn't that the truth!? From the long-haired Persian to the tailless Manx, domestic cats are all one species. There are, in fact, an estimated 75 breeds of domestic cats. But where did they come from? And when did they develop that special relationship with humans called "domestication?" Class Highlights • Lions and tigers...and cats: Which came first? Did cats evolve from the Big Cats (lions, tigers, leopards, cheetahs, etc.) or was it the other way around? • When and where did humans first start communing with cats? • Why do we think the Egyptians were the first to domesticate cats? • The features of the Egyptian Mau. • How can so many breeds of cats come from one main ancestor? How I teach: I’m happy to hear questions and comments during the presentation--not only after class. Other features of my teaching style and philosophy: √ Classes with only 4 students. √ Lots of student interaction. √ Dramatic Keynote (like PowerPoint) presentation with illustrations and photos to enhance learning. √ Clips of videos to increase the understanding and enjoyment of the class content. √ The display of my collection's AUTHENTIC ANTIQUITIES used by ancient Egyptians. I encourage kids to share their opinions, ideas, mistakes and triumphs. I love it when kids laugh. After the class, I message parents/caretakers to inform them how their student did, and I send extra files for their interest. I specialize in classes with no more than four students. I interact a lot with learners in my classes (showing antiquities from my classroom, plus images and videos). I motivate students to share their opinions, ideas, mistakes and triumphs. I love it when kids laugh. After the class, I message students (and their parents/caretakers), telling them how their child did. I also include some extra files for their interest and encourage them to discover more about cats on their own. CLASS PRICE includes (in addition to the scheduled class): 1. Welcome message to both the student and enroller. 2. Quiz (actually, a learning tool) as a pre-lesson activity. 3. Personalized post-class message to the student and enroller, detailing how the learner did in class and any recommendations. 4. Availability to answer a student's questions (by message) after class. 💥 For more scheduled classes, please scroll down to “Show Alternative Times.” Copyright ©, Ilene Springer, 2024 All rights reserved.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I hold a Diploma in Egyptology from Oxford College in England and a Certificate of Museum Studies from Harvard University. And I’ve been to Egypt three times on personalized, educational tours. I am also a certified substitute teacher in the New Mexico and New Hampshire public school systems.
I've been captivated by ancient Egypt since I was 10 years old. And I feel it's my destiny to share my enthusiasm for and expertise on this beautiful and brilliant 5000-year-old civilization with all of you. I hope to see you soon in this class. I think you'll agree that The Egyptian Room is an attractive, fun and inspiring place to learn.
