US Grade 5 - 8
There's a slim chance that you might have lived the life of royalty in ancient Egypt, such as a pharaoh, queen or heir to the throne. It's much more likely that you would have been a kid from a wealthy family (if you were lucky), a son or daughter of a poor family (very common), or possibly - the child of slaves. These are the topics we'll cover: ∆ Week 1. How the Rich and Noble Lived in Ancient Egypt ∆ Week 2. The Poor in Egypt: What Was It Like? ∆ Week 3. The Complicated Life of a Slave (Please see the 💥SYLLABUS💥 for lesson details.) How I Teach: I’m happy to hear questions and comments during the presentation--not only after class. Other features of my teaching style and philosophy: √ Classes with only 3 students. √ Lots of student interaction. √ Dramatic Keynote (like PowerPoint) presentation with illustrations and photos to enhance learning. √ Clips of videos to increase the understanding and enjoyment of the class content. √ The display of my collection's AUTHENTIC ANTIQUITIES used by ancient Egyptians. I encourage kids to share their opinions, ideas, mistakes and triumphs. I love it when kids laugh. After the class, I message parents/caretakers to inform them how their student did, and I send extra files for their interest. CLASS FEE INCLUDES: 1. Welcome message to both the student and enroller. 2. Quiz (actually, a learning tool) as a pre-lesson activity. 3. Personalized post-class message to the student and enroller, detailing how the learner did in class and any recommendations. 4. Availability to answer a student's questions (by message) after class. 💥 For more scheduled classes, please scroll down to “Show Alternative Times.” Copyright ©, Ilene Springer, 2024 All rights reserved.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I hold a Certificate of Museum Studies from Harvard University and a Diploma in Egyptology from Oxford College in England. And I’ve been to Egypt three times on personalized, educational tours.
I've been captivated by ancient Egypt since I was 10 years old. And I feel it's my destiny to share my enthusiasm for and expertise on this beautiful and brilliant 5000-year-old civilization with all of you. I hope to see you soon for a class. I think you'll agree that The Egyptian Room is an attractive, fun and inspiring place to learn. And, please, if you like, call me Ms. Sennuwy - my chosen ancient Egyptian name.
