In this class, we will meet once a week to learn about new animals that are listed as endangered! This is an ongoing course. We will learn about their habitat, what they eat, predators, size, and interesting facts. We will even try to draw each animal. Students will learn the different levels of endangerment and draw their own scale. We will mark where each animal falls on our scales. Students will learn why they are endangered and the different ways people are trying to help protect and conserve the animals, their environment, and raise awareness.

Class structure: Introductions, rules, schedule Introduction to new vocabulary Group interaction Direct instruction Question and Answer Summaries can be done verbally or written via the chatbox Visuals, audio, and videos My teaching style is fun, engaging, and student-centered. I enjoy adding animations, pictures, audio, videos and tangible examples for students to remain engaged. I encourage and promote class discussion (both verbally and in the chatbox features) The summary is tailored to the level of comfort for each student. Students who are comfortable reading their paragraph aloud, may read aloud to the class. Students who would rather share their paragraph in writing, can submit it in the chatbox and either myself or one of the other students will read it aloud. At the end of class we will celebrate each other's success completing the writing assignment, share our favorite fact from the lesson, and say our goodbyes. No former knowledge is needed for this class, however, but animal enthusiasts are absolutely welcomed and encouraged to join our discussion and share what they know with our class. Missed class policy: I do not readily offer makeups or refunds for missed lessons, as I do not have the availability in my schedule to accommodate that for all students. The class videos will post to the class wall approximately 20-30 minutes after the live class has ended. Students who missed class can watch the video and use it to take notes. They can also email me with any questions they have about the material. The videos are also appropriate for students that want to review the material again after the live meeting. If another section is available for transfer and the missed class was an emergency or unexpected event, I will try to accommodate. However, students enrolling in class hold a seat that another student could have reserved. I keep my classes small to encourage and promote social interaction and only a few sections are available for each course. If I cancel a class due to weather, low enrollment, or an emergency, I will refund parents immediately. Low enrollments- if the class does not meet the minimum number of students, I will email parents to ask if they would prefer a transfer or a refund. If I do not hear back from parents, I will try to transfer students into a comparable class (time/day of the week) or refund.

I have taught at Kagan and Cambridge schools. I have completed numerous Kagan certification courses. Most of my time teaching in public education was in low-income schools, high-risk students, emotional/behavioral disorders, and international schools.
In addition to the above certification areas, I have also taught:
Biology (general education, special education, and advanced placement)
Social / Personal skills
Algebra/ Pre-Algebra
Gifted
I have served as a teacher leader and coach for new teachers, reading coach for students and teachers, and case manager for students with IEPs.

Other Certifications:
Reiki Practioner

Prior to becoming a teacher, I was a correctional officer. I completed two training academies and license exams. I worked in adult male facilities in both Florida and Texas.
I also teach ESOL (English as a second language) to students and adults living around the world.
I have served as a judge for Thomas Alva Edison's Science and Research Fairs.
My teaching style is heavily influenced by my background in psychology, working with individuals with emotional and behavioral disorders, and appealing to the unique needs and interests of all students. I believe classes should be interactive and fun, leaving students with memorable experiences. When students are excited and intrigued by new information and learning, they develop a love for learning. In my classroom, I want all students to feel safe, excited, appreciated, valued, and understood.
I am very active in my community! I started a Pin-up group in my area in order to embrace the vintage clothing style and encourage other women to get involved in community outreach. The group has over 40 female members and we devote a great deal of time to volunteering for local non-profits in our community. Additionally, many of us have been published in magazines (Yes! Including me!) I help promote community service/ outreach and encourage women to get their children involved in our community events as well!
Additionally, I have owned and operated my own businesses while teaching full-time.
While living in Florida, I owned and operated a pet sitting/ boarding business. I had over 200 customers and cared for their dogs, cats, horses, donkey, goats, chickens, and many other animals. I am a HUGE animal lover!
Both of my dogs are rescues and I am actively involved with community service work that serves to protect and care for animals.
Through my personal business, I offer Reiki services, life/ health, and confidence coaching to adults and children. I am a contracted life coach, life coach blogger, and served as an editor for a non-profit life coaching organization and serve on the board of directors as the secretary and fill-in Vice President.レビュー
