I believe that learning should be fun and relevant. My style incorporates experience into learning. Any concept that we cover will be connected to real-world application. The goal is to gain knowledge that not only supports high academic performance but helps build a working knowledge of the world around us, allowing learners to confidently make use of accumulated wisdom.
These lessons are for middle school, high school, tech school, and undergraduate level students who would like to strengthen their Math & Science skills through authentic learning.
We'll start by getting to know each other and establishing some goals. Then, we'll collaborate on a plan for achieving those goals and get to work. At the start of each session, we'll check in on our goals and discuss any stressors that may be relevant. Though I encourage learners to share about their lives, you are free to engage at your comfort level.
The lesson plan of a session will be customized for the learner's needs, goals, and availability. Typically, we'll start with a question or prompt that activates prior knowledge on the subject or generates interest. I like these to be related to the real world. Next, we'll talk about how that example relates to the content and get into the main ideas. We'll do some practice and investigate additional concepts that become important during our discussion. Near the end of the session, we'll debrief then check back in with our goals and plan for next time.
