Hello, 
My name is Carol Cobb. I am passionate about helping students develop  social skills, academic skills, learn how to deal with issues that they are concerned about, and explore topics they care about. 

My pronouns are she/her. I believe in an inclusive classroom where all students are welcome. 

My classes now center on writing skills. I have found that by helping students learn to organize their thoughts, they can master essay writing. Students can also learn different type of essays. Essay writing is an important skills for students to master. 

I have been in education over 30 years. I am certified in Elementary Education, Special Education K-12, School Counseling K-12, and Middle School English. Most of by time has been as a school counselor at the elementary level.  I have extensive experience teaching classroom and small groups on social skills, careers, anger management, personal and family issues, and many more!  I am trained a a mediator training, and love to teach student how to use mediation to solve conflicts. These experiences help me manage the classroom and meet students needs that might come up. 

I started a STEM club for 60 students and love to help students learn more about STEM topics. I have coordinated an annual STEM/Career Day for over 20 years, a family STEM night, and even a Virtual Career Day one year. I led a team to compete in Battle of the Brains on saving the rain forests. I also love nature, especially bird study and photography. These interests and experiences help me relate to many of the student's topics, as they seem to be very popular. 

My special education and counseling training helps me help students that are autistic or those with ADHD. I  try to make sure my classes meet the needs of those with unique learning needs. 

I want the classes to learn not only content, but how to respect each other and learn from each other. It is important that the learning environment is positive and safe. I am hoping that some of the classes such as birding will become ongoing classes. I want students to be actively engaged in the process.

Class Policies:

1)  I will do my best to keep classes on schedule, while also taking into account if a student has a need that may require a little more time it is important to take that into consideration. If other students are in the class, they would be free to leave at the scheduled ending time. 

2) It is expected that all students and teacher will show respect, and be shown respect by others. It needs to be a safe environment. If students are warned and do not stop any disrespectful behavior, they will be muted briefly and then given another chance. If this happens the parent will be notified. 

3) Class will start on time, and no contact will be made with those absent during class time. Parents will be contacted if students are absent to discuss any technical issues, need to reschedule if another class session is planned, or if it meets criteria for refund. If no learners are in the class, I will exit after 10 minutes and then contact parents.
