Hello,
My name is Michael S. Gullett. However, all my students tend to call me Mr. G! I have 20 years of being a teacher and a principal in Alaska. Plus, another six years as a young pup growing up in Alaska. I have had the wonderful opportunity to work and travel all over the state of Alaska. Many of the villages and towns are only accessible by plane or boat.
During the vast majority of my career, I have taught history/social studies; but while teaching at a high school near Anchorage (Alaska) I became a member of the Seminar or the Socratic Method to teaching. In the seminar method students and their take on learning the content through readings (many time primary documents), creating together deep philosophical questions to expand our learning, and discussion. These three aspects a main parts to a seminar class, but I can ensure future students and parents that there is so much more to this style of teaching. The Zoom technology is a perfect for examining history and language arts through the seminar style. I use the seminar style to ask my students deep philosophical questions that allows us to think deeply about history. In my classes, history comes alive is so many different ways. My teaching experience includes elementary to high grades, different contents or curriculums, special education resource, as well as Career and Technical Education.
I have been teaching on Outschool since 2020 (hard to believe it has already been four years)! I really enjoy teaching on Outschool, because I am able to teach history, language arts (writing), public speaking, and other unique classes from sports broadcasting and podcasting to classes about Alaska. I am looking forward to your son or daughter signing up for one of my classes!
I have two Master Degree: One in Educational Leadership and the second in Career and Technical Education. You will find that I do a wonderful job of getting to know my students and their future interests. This allows me to connect history to my students interest. I also have a BA in History and Secondary Education. My main emphasis for history was Native American and the Frontier (West) History. Even though this was my focus - I love all history from American History to World History and even a cool topic like 1960s Rock and Roll. One of the main reasons for joining Outschool is having the freedom to offer interest historical and language arts topics, finding out what my students are interested in, and creating classes on topics that in a traditional school I might not have the opportunity to go in depth. I know that you will find my classes fun, engaging, creative, and an excellent bridge between high school and college level content. I am also looking forward to creating exciting history and/or geography lessons for younger grade, because many times traditional schools no longer have the time to dive into these extremely fun ares.
