This course is designed to encourage conversation and social skills in a comfortable environment for like-minded students. We will be discussing topics that students have an interest in and they will learn how to share that interest with others. This discussion-based class will help promote listening and speaking skills while students analyze characters and events in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Students will consider character growth and traits, and contrast this against other characters they know. This course will cultivate communication skills while building a community that enjoys the same topics. Students will also learn how to appropriately debate and argue their own opinions against others that may disagree with them. The MCU is a unique beast in the entertainment world in that is it always changing with new movies and TV shows being introduced that often tie into each other. Conversations each week will typically focus on events as they happen, but any topic in the MCU is fair game as long as students are interested in the topics. Things we might discuss are: Who is your favorite superhero? Who is the strongest? Which villain was the scariest? Which villain is the most sympathetic? Which movies are your favorites, and in what order? Theories of what might come next? Students are encouraged to come to class with topics they would like to discuss. * We try our best to avoid spoilers in this course, but please be aware that if your child has not seen the most recently released MCU content, they may hear some spoilers. We usually try and avoid the most recent topics and save that conversation for the following week where possible to give people enough time to see whatever new thing may have been released in the MCU. ** MCU content is typically suited for children of most ages, but if you ever have a question you can reach out to me or search online for movie ratings and age guidelines.

Hello, Outschoolers!
My name is John and I have been a scientist and educator for over 15 years. I hold a Bachelor of Science (Honors in Biology), Master of Applied Sciences, and a Ph.D. in biology. Over my BSc, MSc and PhD I have designed and delivered courses for students aged 3 to 63 for class sizes ranging from one-on-one lessons to classrooms of over 300 students.
I have professionally taught subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Astronomy, and Math, as well as more focused lessons such as courses in Public Speaking, Time Management, and Conversation Skills. I have worked as a scientific mentor and instructor to students in elementary school all the way to university. I hold certificates for 150-hour Teaching English as a Foreign Language and 250-hour Intensive Teaching certificates, and have participated in seminars for Grading and Giving Feedback to students. I have given scientific conference presentations to audiences of more than 700 people, and have published a number of peer-reviewed scientific articles. I also have experience coaching a variety of sports including hockey, basketball, and volleyball. I have been teaching courses online for 5 years to more than 1200 students.
I am a lifelong student and love to learn new things each day. My teaching philosophy revolves around this idea, that every student has a lot of their own to offer and I always try to relate any topic to a student's interest. You may find classes of mine that take popular culture and relate these hobbies and interests with academic concepts to help students relate to the material. My classes are often heavy in discussion (though no student is forced to speak if they do not want to) and we expand on the material in each lesson based on what students are most interested in. This often results in courses that interest me in particular and that I think can offer students a lot of value and critical thinking skills. I teach high-level academic courses, as well as conversation-based community development to foster interest in sharing things students enjoy.
Private, personalized tutoring is also available. Send me a message if interested.
I hope to see you all in class soon!
John
