In this self-paced, flexible schedule class, we'll delve into the principles of flight through dynamic lessons. From understanding air pressure and lift to mastering the construction of paper airplanes and model planes, students will learn the science that keeps things flying, covering fundamental to advanced aerodynamics concepts.

🎯 Demystify Flight Science. 🎯
Students will not only absorb theoretical knowledge but also apply it through exciting hands-on projects—from simple paper airplanes to intricate paper plate planes. This class elevates students' understanding of physics, enhancing their problem-solving skills and sparking a lifelong curiosity about how things fly. Each lesson is an opportunity to become a young aeronautic engineer, teaching and sharing newfound knowledge with family and friends, fostering confidence and a passion for science!



🌟 What Makes the Self-Paced Schedule So Special? 🌟
My aerodynamics class is asynchronous, meaning there are no live sessions. Instead, students enjoy pre-recorded lessons, interactive quizzes, and engaging projects at their own pace. This format allows for:

1. Access to the same quality content as live sessions, enriched with additional hands-on projects and quizzes for a comprehensive learning experience.
2. Freedom from technical glitches, scheduling conflicts, and distractions, offering a focused and flexible learning environment.
3. The convenience of learning anytime, anywhere—revisit content as needed to reinforce understanding or ignite further curiosity.
4. Enhanced learning with extended time for practice, questions, and creativity between lessons.

👩‍🏫 About the Instructor
Hey there! I'm Ms. Jessica, and I'm super excited to take you on a fun ride through the amazing world of aerodynamics. My journey from being a web analyst to stepping into the classroom has been pretty wild. I've always been the curious type, fascinated by how things work, whether it's clicking through the internet or watching planes zoom across the sky. That curiosity? It led me right here, teaching awesome students like you.

Homeschooling my kids opened my eyes to the wonders (and, sure, the challenges) of learning at home. It taught me how to make lessons stick by actually doing hands-on stuff, not just talking about it. 

Beside Outschool, I also teach STEM classes in person at private institutions and nonprofit organizations, which has been a fantastic way to meet students from all walks of life and learn that, yup, one size doesn't fit all when it comes to learning. My goal? To light up that spark of curiosity in you, make you fall in love with learning, and build up your confidence to tackle even the tricky stuff.

So, whether we're folding the coolest paper airplanes or figuring out why things fly, I'm here to cheer you on, answer your burning questions, and make sure we have a blast doing it. Ready to dive in and explore together? Let's do this!
