Guidelines
Welcome to our Group! We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 3 rules we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful.
Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included.
Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here
Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs.
Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private.
Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated.
Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered.
Be Original - Do not pass other's work off as your own. If you use a tutorial or heavily use a piece as inspiration, be sure to credit the original source.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! I'm Mery, a homeschooling mom to two awesome kids and over the past 20+ years, I've taught many other learners through community classes. From a very young age I loved reading and people who knew young me at the time said that the one thing they could always count on when they saw me is that I would always have a book with me. As an adult, when I was reflecting I realized that these stories that I enjoyed when I was young taught me lasting knowledge that still impacted my life as an adult. I believe that stories and hands on experiences are the best at helping us learn, so in most of my classes you'll find that we are learning through fantastic stories and learning new skills that we try on our own. I still love to read today as an adult, but I find that most of my favorite books are still the children's/young adult books that I'm reading with my kids!Reviews
