I use a combination of video lectures, interactive activities, and project-based learning to teach this class. Each lesson is designed to be engaging and hands-on, encouraging active participation. For example:

What's Your Teaching Style?
This class is hands-on, and students will actively participate. I believe all students can succeed, and my teaching style reflects that. I like to bring fun and humor to all my classes while fostering a supportive and inclusive environment. I strive to make learning personal and engaging.

How Much Will Learners Get to Interact With You?
While this is a self-paced course, there are opportunities for interaction:
