야생 크래트족을 모두 모십니다: 야행성 동물과 발광 동물과 함께 빛나세요!

Hi! My name is Tonya.  My students call me Teacher Tonya.  As an Outschool teacher, I encourage my students to take an active part in the learning process.  I provided many opportunities for the student to be engaged in class.  This gives students an opportunity to think independently and come up with new thoughts and ideas, as well as the chance to speak out.  I love getting to witness those "ah-ha" moments.  It's important that students leave class with new knowledge and a sense of confidence in using that knowledge.  While I take time during and at the end of class for questions, I also make every effort to be available for requested additional time, or to simply answer questions and emails.    
I currently have my BSA in Animal Science, and ALMOST a Masters Degree in Education (Middle School Science).  Most of my teaching experience comes from homeschooling, tutoring, and being an online educator.  I've homeschooled my own children from 1st-9th grades.  I also tutor other students in English, mostly ranging from 1st-8th grades.  I've been an ESL teacher for 2 years and have both TESOL and TEFL certifications.  I have spent a brief amount of time in brick & mortar classes.  There was also a time (pre-corona virus) that I was our local home school co-op coordinator.    
When I'm not teaching, tutoring, or homeschooling, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially outdoors.  We do things such as swim, bike ride, fish, ride 4-wheelers, play ball, run, kayak, and more.  
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out to me.  This includes anything from class size, age, learning ability, tutoring, and more.  I am usually quick to respond and glad to help.  I hope to see you in my classroom soon.  Come, join me.  And let's have fun learning together.
