In this stimulating and educational course, your child will journey through the rich tapestry of myths, legends, and sacred stories that have been instrumental in shaping human civilizations around the world. This class is designed to engage your child's imagination, while imparting valuable knowledge about the interconnectivity of culture, geography, biology, and societal values. Storytelling has been an essential part of our shared human experience for generations. It has shaped our understanding of the world around us, defined our cultural identities, and inspired countless generations. The tales of mythical beasts, legendary heroes, and sacred truths have not just captivated our minds but have also influenced societal norms and values. Our class explores this rich tradition, understanding it not only as a means of entertainment but as a powerful educational tool. In 'Myths and Legends,' we travel from the icy realms of Norse mythology to the sun-kissed lands of Greek legends, from the lofty peaks of Himalayan lore to the rich savannahs of African tales, and much more. As we navigate these tales, students learn about different cultures, their unique traditions, social structures, and inherent beliefs. Further, we intertwine this learning with the diverse geographies of the world. Your child will understand how the landscape and climate of a region have influenced the stories born from those places. They will learn how the harsh deserts, dense jungles, vast oceans, and freezing tundra are not just settings for our tales, but important characters in them. No legend is complete without its mythical beasts or sacred animals. As part of this course, students will delve into the fascinating world of biology. They will learn about real animals that inspired mythical creatures, understanding their unique traits, behaviors, and habitats, further fostering a love for the natural world. Through 'Myths and Legends,' we aim to engage, educate, and inspire your child. This unique class creates a holistic learning environment, utilizing the power of stories to instill in your child a deeper appreciation for world cultures, geography, and biology. They will leave the course not only with a treasure trove of fascinating tales to share but also a broadened worldview and a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of our world. For example a class on the story Anansi the Spider would include: 1. We will first introduce ourselves and have a little time to talk about how our week is going. 2. Learning about the Ghanian culture: music, geography, dance, food and animals 3. Next I will read out the story, accompanied by pictures to help understanding. 4.Finally, we will talk about what we thought about the story. (Most traditional stories have a lesson included, we will discuss the students thoughts on the story). 5. Class finishes with a few questions on what we have learnt! ***An idea of 2024, subjects and Vacation times may be subject to change**** Week 11: March 11, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Japan pt.1 Week 12: March 18, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Japan pt. 2 Week 13: March 25, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Japan pt. 2/Ethopia ***NO CLASSES 29th of March-1st April*** Week 14: April 01, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Italy Week 15: April 08, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Jordan Week 16: April 15, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Brazil Week 17: April 22, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Indonesia Week 18: April 29, 2024 - ***VACATION WEEK*** Week 19: May 06, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Vietnam Week 20: May 13, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of the Australia Week 21: May 20, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Ireland Week 22: May 27, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Senegal Week 23: June 03, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, Geography of Canada Week 24: June 10, 2024 - ***VACATION WEEK*** Week 25: June 17, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of Switzerland Week 26: June 24, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of Peru Week 27: July 01, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of Thailand Week 28: July 08, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of France Week 29: July 15, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of England Week 30: July 22, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music, and Geography of Wales Week 31: July 29, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Turkey Week 32: August 05, 2024 - ***No classes 5th to the 9th of August*** Ghana Week 33: August 12, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of Mongolia Week 34: August 19, 2024 - Myths, Culture, Music and Geography of India Week 35: August 26, 2024 - Myths and, Culture, Music and Geography of Ancient Greece pt1.

其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
Occasionally a story may have some aspects such as death, a battle, etc. As these are Myths and Legends the stories tend to hold the full spectrum of life on earth within them. However, I ensure things are NEVER gratuitous though.

教師專業知識和證書
2 度
碩士 在 心理學 從 Regent's University, UK
學士學位 在 歷史 從 University of Sheffield, UK
Growing up in the UK as a minority, I have always studied the non-mainstream perspectives where-ever I could, meaning in all my degree subjects (Philosophy, History & Psychology), I have thoroughly studied different cultural perspectives, and when teaching ensure all my sources are directly from the culture in question.
I have tutored and home schooled in my degree subjects for ages 4-18, taught in schools in my native country the Gambia, and nannies a (ages 0-11). Often questions around cultural differences or equality issues have come up and I am able to handle them softly, while ensuring the student leaves with the knowledge that equality is important for us all!
I am well-traveled, and love to explore new perspectives in my personal life!
