1 hora por semana. OPTIONAL: I will provide feedback if learners would like to write a summary after each lesson. They can either summarise the lecture and discussion in our class, or they can summarise one aspect or topic from the lesson. This will demonstrate understanding and allow me as a teacher to provide further explanation and clarification as applicable. They can either upload a screenshot or a document to the classroom or in a message, or they can show their work in person at the start of the next class. Each class recording will be made available so that learners who need to can review the lesson from each day before moving on to the next day.Evaluación

I am also a homeschool father of multiple children. We have always homeschooled and participated in distance education. We came to Outschool in 2018 as learners, and now I am excited to also teach on this platform. I understand the needs of parents of learners here as I am one myself. Further, I am a native English speaker. Reseñas
