世界地理、国別学習 - 少人数制の楽しいインタラクティブクラス、セミプライベート

In this ongoing class we will discover the World one country at a time. Every week we will explore a new destination, starting from its location on the map, bordering countries and capital, taking virtual reality trips to some of the locations and looking at the architecture, diving into the language, culture and local food, while linking some facts to its ancient or more modern history, learning about some wild life, sports and other traditions and aspects.  We will not only learn physical, human or environmental geography. To awaken learners' curiosity we will aim to give them a taste of the local culture, exposing them to the similarities and differences between different parts of the World. Even though the places that we live in are unique, we all have something in common! Join us at any time to learn more! :)

As a solo female traveler, I have traveled to over 85 countries, meeting people, always looking to immerse myself in the local culture and explore off-the-beaten path. I am looking forward to sharing my love of travel and my curiosity about the world with your learner! 

Each class content will vary depending on the country, however there will be a common structure to each class:
 - Brief introduction
 - What do you know or have heard about the respective country? 
 - Presentation of new information (including location, capital, flag, weather or other geographical features, customs, typical local food, wild life, maybe learn a word or two in the local language)
 - Pictures, videos, virtual reality tours
- Classes will often include some information (from real travel experience of the teacher) about what it is like to travel to the respective country
 - Optional Kahoot Game (to check the retention of the new information in a fun, engaging way)

I strongly believe that traveling can awaken learners' curiosity in so many different disciplines and of course just make them better understanding of the world around them. 

This is a fun and interactive class. Student are invited to actively participate by asking/answering questions, expressing their opinion, and making suggestions on what they want to learn about in future classes including which countries we will cover. We will use a Nearpod presentation for visuals (pictures, virtual reality tours and short videos) and to increase participation (collaboration boards and polls). I invest a lot of time each week to prepare for this class, researching and creating a fun presentation.

** New destination will be added as we progress. If there is a specific country that the learners are interested in, feel free to request it and we can add it to the schedule.

There are additional activates that learners can complete after the class, including creating their own travel passport or scratch off each country as we visit it using a scratch-off map.

We will keep this class small (between 1 and 4 learners) to allow for more interaction and participation).

I hope to meet your traveler in class soon! :)
