Hi there, I'm Teacher Michael and I'm happy to see you on my profile page!  I love teaching students of all ages about social skills that involve gaming and anime.

Since 2012, I have volunteered and am currently participating with the Special Olympics working with ages 8 and older.  In 2016, I completed a social skills training program run by the University of Central Florida.  Through my local school, I tutored students ages 6-12 in math, reading, science, social studies, and writing skills in 2018.  I currently belong to several social clubs in my area where I work with youth ages 14-18.  

My passion is creating an environment where students can openly discuss their favorite topics without the barriers of a traditional school setting. When children play together they build confidence, stay active through movement, practice motor skills and develop learning skills.  With my years of experience working with youth, I will be able to mentor and teach students while playing games and practicing life skills.

I am Autistic and have ADHD.  I feel I can relate to students with and without disabilities because most learners are looking for a way to express themselves in a safe environment without fear of negativity.  Outschool is the perfect platform for those that need a little help or that want a class that lets you be you!  I want to show my learners that education can be fun and engaging without being overwhelming.
