Hello Everyone!
I teach an ongoing class through Outschool called The Stairs to Success. The Stairs to Success is a research-based curriculum containing fourteen units. Each unit is designed to help students improve their student success skills such as test-taking, motivation, notetaking, critical thinking, and more! The Stairs to Success will set learners up for success in college, community college, a trade or technical program, or the world of work. Check out my "About" page, to see all of the units and understand just what each one is about. I also offer each unit in The Stairs to Success curriculum as a stand-alone class. If you feel you just need to improve on just a few of the topics, you can sign up for the stand-alone classes that meet your needs. I graduated from Eastern Illinois University with degrees and certifications in Elementary Education (1-8), Learning Disabilities (K-12), and Emotional and Behavior Disabilities (K-12). My Master's Degree is from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater where I focused my studies on strategic learning. I have taught for 40 years, and although the majority of my teaching career was with middle schoolers, most recently I have taught at the community college level. I believe that with the right tools, including a growth mindset and an understanding of how one learns, we can learn anything! Yes, ANYTHING!!! In addition to having a passion for helping young adults become strategic learners, I enjoy cooking, gardening, and camping. I have even taught cooking classes for children in grades 1-5, helping them to develop knowledge about a healthy diet and independent cooking skills. |
