About

Making things gives you joy, and you've reached a happy level of expertise. Bravo! If you want to pass that on to others, but are unsure where to start, this is the class for you.

You've taken lots of classes by now, so you know that effective teaching requires more than just knowing how to do something. Learn how to organize your information and plan ahead so that your students come away inspired, encouraged, and sharing your joy.
