One of my favorite virtual classes to teach is Zoology! I've always loved to learn about animals and this interest shines through in my teaching. This weekly science course covers so much fascinating content!
Class times are 3 pm eastern on Wednesdays or 10 am eastern on Thursdays.
When you email me to register, please let me know which of these class times your child plans to attend most of the time. You are able to switch week to week if there are scheduling conflicts. I do not record my classes to protect the privacy of the students. If your child needs to miss both class times, please reach out to me and I will send you the class content.
3. Finally, you can register per class to give it a try or for the remainder of the season (if you've missed the deadline) for $12 each.

I created this Zoology class for homeschooled kids in 2020 when my oldest was in 5th grade. She had peers who were being homeschooled suddenly and unexpectedly. This class was designed to support lots of parents during a difficult time using my expertise - teaching!
I'll be offering the weekly classes again for the 2024 - 2025 school year. The content is appropriate for students ages 8 and up but I have occasionally made exceptions for younger learners who can be independent (or have parent assistance) using Zoom. Please contact me to discuss!
Class times are 3 pm eastern on Wednesdays or 10 am eastern on Thursdays.
