コーディングの欲求を掻き立てる: Scratch ゲーム キャンプ

Join me on a journey of creativity and fun! I have been a teacher in California for nearly 20 years and am currently an independent study teacher. My most common review so far has been praising my patience, and I really care that all students succeed in my classes. 

Scratch courses
I will be offering various Scratch courses for students to learn the basics of Scratch and how to make games and projects. This has unexpectedly become my niche with Outschool, and I have a great time guiding kids through the process of coding games and creative projects on Scratch. 

Writing classes 
One of my passions is helping students work on their writing skills. I also love integrating creative writing with technology because I think allowing students to practice their creative writing while learning more about technical skills, such as creating slideshow presentations, enables them to build skills that they will take into the workforce in a fun, engaging way.

I received my degree in English from Bryn Mawr College in '98 and went on to earn my teaching credential from Dominican University in '02. 

I taught as a classroom teacher for 11 years, at different times having every grade from 1st through 5th, but primarily teaching 2nd and 3rd.  I currently work at a blended independent study school with students in grades K-8, meeting with them individually about their homeschool learning. I also teach an enrichment class for 7th graders on campus.

I live on a sheep ranch near the coast and love getting out into nature when I can. I truly love working with students and can't wait to work with you!
