Experiencia de clase

Life can be overwhelming, especially when we have a lot of tasks to do that we don't want to do! In this class, I will teach students strategies for not only tackling their to-do lists, but also finding ways to make that fun. We will create short lists of goals, then break those goals down into manageable tasks, and then break those tasks down further into manageable sections. 
I am an enthusiastic and encouraging teacher, and as we go along I will help students figure out ways to make their goal-accomplishing fun. I will ask questions in order to guide my students towards discoveries. Students should come prepared with writing utensils (the more colors the better) and a notebook or a word processor. 
This class is useful for all students, but especially for homeschool students looking for time management strategies. 

This class is half an hour long, with pauses in instruction built in to allow students time to work in class.

Metas de aprendizaje

Students will learn how to reframe their attitude towards what they have to do and learn how to take ownership of achieving their goals.

How to Be Motivated

 During the first part of the lesson, I will go over mental strategies that can help students feel better about the tasks they need to complete. After that, I'll ask students to choose a goal and then break that goal down into manageable steps and create a schedule for themselves. At the end of class, I'll have then write down things that they like about their goal, and things they don't like - an exercise that will help them choose positive thoughts about their goal.

Hello! 

My name is Maura, and I'm an actor, musician, poet, and teacher. I have been teaching and tutoring for fifteen years. I'm always excited to share what I've learned with my students!

I graduated summa cum laude from Carthage College with degrees in Music and Theater Performance, and have been performing professionally as an actor and musician. I regularly perform with a children's theater that teaches kids about conservation!

I am also a published poet, and a professional ghostwriter and freelance book editor. As a huge nerd, I have read and am currently reading countless books, and I have an in-depth knowledge of plot creation and good literary structure. 

I also teach life skills, particularly cultivating motivation and dealing with overwhelming or negative emotions. I was home-schooled until college, and I am an extremely self-motivated person, as well as a problem-solver. As a highly sensitive person, I have to deal with stress often and have discovered numerous ways to deal with the inevitable tensions that life brings to us! I learned to be a positive person in high school, and I love teaching students ways to appreciate what is good even in the midst of negative situations. 

I am a very kind, patient, and encouraging teacher. I do well with both quiet and energetic students. My approach is question based, and I not only teach my students new information, I teach them how to arrive at valuable conclusions themselves. I use time efficiently, and am well prepared for every lesson I teach. I was homeschooled through high school, and I have a lot of respect for homeschooling parents and students. 

I hope to see you virtually soon!

Maura
