• What did Dorothy Eady from London do to convince archeologists that
she had indeed lived a previous life in ancient Egypt?
• What crazy stunt did Cleopatra pull at a dinner with Mark Anthony?
• How did Pharaoh Pepi stop flies from torturing him?
Discover the answers to these and many other intriguing questions that even most experts in Egyptology don't know. Each week ( six total) will feature a different, lesser-known topic on ancient Egyptian life, people and practices. At the beginning of each class, students will hear a strange fact, followed by the subject at hand.
Please see the 💥 SYLLABUS💥 above for details about each week's class subject.
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.
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.
This class has been rated a "Top Ancient Egyptian class" on Outschool.

I use a number of primary and secondary materials from experts on the various subjects covered in the classes. Each week has several resources; the ones listed here are one of many sources for that week's topic:
Week 1.
√Cleopatra and Rome (book/research) by Diana E. E. Kleiner. "In this story, Cleopatra's death was not an end but a beginning--a starting point for a wide variety of appropriations by Augustus and his contemporaries that established a paradigm for cultural conversion."
√ Cleopatra: A Life (book) by Stacy Schiff. " Her palace shimmered with onyx, garnets, and gold, but was richer still in political and sexual intrigue. Above all else, Cleopatra was a shrewd strategist and an ingenious negotiator."
Week 2.
√ The Tears of Re: Beekeeping in Ancient Egypt (book) by Gene Kritsky.
"According to Egyptian mythology, when the ancient Egyptian sun god Re cried, his tears turned into honey bees upon touching the ground. For this reason, the honey bee was sacrosanct in ancient Egyptian culture."

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. Additionally, I’ve been to Egypt three times on personalized, educational tours.
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 for a class. I think you'll agree that The Egyptian Room is an attractive, fun and inspiring place to learn. Reseñas
