In this one-time class, students will learn the history behind the celebration of the Winter Solstice across cultures. We will explore why this yearly event was observed by ancient people, some of the traditions and festivals held to celebrate the solstice, and how many of these traditions have lived on today. The class is taught from a completely secular and historical point of view. Because students may come to the class from a variety of backgrounds, learners are encouraged to share some of their personal traditions around this time of year to compare and contrast with those specific to Yule. After learning more about the background, we will craft a lantern to help light the way until Spring. 🙂 In all of my classes, I encourage student-led learning. I guide students through the discovery process using socratic teaching methods and real-world connections when possible. Most of all, I want students to have fun - students learn best when they are engaged and encouraged!

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Georgia Certificado de Docencia en Educación especial
Licenciatura en Educación desde Towson University
Hi! My name is Rhea and I'm so happy you're here. 🙂
In 2017, I graduated with honors from Towson University - earning my Bachelor's in Elementary and Special Education. After graduation, I began my career in special education and went on to become an Intervention Coordinator. This gave me the opportunity to apply my extensive experience identifying and utilizing individual interventions on a school-wide level.
I am now the proud owner of an educational advocacy and consulting agency, through which I work to bridge the gap between educators and families. Coupled with my work on Outschool, I am able to provide a cohesive experience for families - providing both students and parents with the resources they need to thrive. If you'd like to learn more about services for parents, you can visit www.myeducationworks.org to learn more.
My favorite thing about teaching is seeing the potential in students - sometimes long before they see it in themselves. I firmly believe in an approach to education that is individualized, empathetic, encouraging, and always student-centered.
In every class, students are encouraged to use their inquisitive nature and their creativity to help them learn through self-discovery - creating a much deeper and impactful learning experience. I believe in student-led learning and creating experiences for students rather than talking "at them."
When I'm not teaching, I can often be found exploring nature with my own two little boys, spending time with my pets, or snuggled up with a good book.
Thank you so much for stopping by my profile and exploring the course offerings. I am so honored that you have considered me as your child's teacher. I look forward to meeting your learner!
