As an educator for more than 15 years, I have learned a great deal about expanding learning outside the classroom. Before securing my teacher certification I taught community college classes in Parkville and Kansas City, Missouri. I have published (online) a great deal of educational information including learning games, reading activities, writing prompts, reviews and interactive lessons for whiteboard, browser, and various online lesson sharing sites.
In an effort to hone my skills and expand my services I am introducing a line of easy-going flexible mobile classes that can be done on the run. These classes require minimum cost, and minimum time commitment. While these individual courses do not provide educational credits for any institution, they do promise to expand your knowledge and offer a unique personal learning experience for each individual.
The primary advantage to completing personalized instruction is the unique one-to-one attention and ability to tailor "lessons" for the individual. These courses are less like a traditional classroom and more like a consulting workshop, learning experience, or interest activity.
Please contact me if you are interested in enrolling in one or more of the following Personalized Learning Experiences. I have an outline of offerings below, however private tutoring, and consulting are also available at a very affordable rate for subjects not offered. Please email me for a proposal or to inquire about costs and enrollment.
