Real teaching experience
Meet a Few of Our Teachers
Mrs. Thomas
Early Childhood and Elementary Teacher
Math · Reading · Writing · Science · History · Social Studies · Study Skills · Elementary Math · Reading & Literacy
27 years of teaching experience
“My style of teaching includes sharing a variety of ways to learn, but in as a fun a way as possible. Concepts, alone, can be taught and learned using many different strategies. But, after learning the basics, practicing those ideas in a way that is interesting to each individual is important. Games, virtual manipulatives, music/rhymes/rhythm, movies/shows...anything to integrate the senses to learning concepts will make the lessons more meaningful to students.”
Mr. Thomas
Teacher

15 years of teaching experience
“I have taught at the middle school, high school, and college levels over the past 15 years, and I have had 5 years of experience in teaching virtually, so this platform comes natural to me. My belief is that the memorization of dates and capitals is not what history or geography are about. Rather, it is more important to understand the "why" of an event than it is to know the date. Once the understanding of why is reached in context of the times in which the event occurred, then the student will be able to think critically about the events of the past and see how those events have echoed into the present.”
