#distance learning
I was lucky enough to write a blog post for Sincerely Essie, a great online community focused on empowering women! I talk about my experiences with distance learning and the Open University, and I’d really appreciate it if you gave it a read (and also check out the Sincerely Essie website!)

Personal experience time-
With online learning in effect, it is easier to show off student’s work. It may be a helpful tool for the student and the rest of the class. However, when it surpasses the wish of the student, that’s when it is not helpful. It could stress them out and make them feel unwell. This happened to me. I wasn’t asked to show my work, the teacher just did it. I got a 50/100 (figure the actual grade from there, if you wish.) and the class started correcting it. The teacher tried to include me with the corrections, but as a person who has social anxiety this made me feel dread. Even though it wasn’t his intention to do so, it was a matter that he didn’t consider about how the student (me) felt. I actually left the class “early” because I wasn’t going to deal with that snakeshit. Listen, It’s fine if the teacher corrects and helps you personally, it’s actually really helpful. But In front of everyone else, OP says no. I actually always felt really anxious in his class, but this one took the cake

Opting to teach online last year
im really not ready to invest my time in school when i could invest time in her
I need you by my side.
Would you come back to me again? Because I hope so, desperately.
I don’t know why but when the night comes is when I miss you the most.
Maybe I am waiting for something that it is never gonna happen.
In nights like this, I wish distance could disappear.
I’ve been toying with the idea of setting up classes online for those who either can’t get to a teacher, have no metaphysical (etc) stores near them, or just aren’t connecting to local people.
I’ve finally had a student. She also signed up in part because she has anxiety in classroom settings, and she has a really hard time setting up a babysitter for her children.I’d love to set this up for other people too! I had my manual written, but it’s meant for in-class learning. Meaning handouts and filling in gaps through group discussions.
I’m looking for people who want to learn Reiki (currently level 1 and level 2. I haven’t written a master manual yet). I need people who are kind of willing to be guinea pigs as well since you’d be my first students. I need someone who will make lots of notes in my manual, questions you have about how I’ve written things, not afraid to edit my grammar, and willing to just be completely open and honest with me.
If anyone is interested, have questions, comments, concerns, etc. please drop me a message! Or if you just want to talk about energy healing, we can do that too. lol Thanks everyone!
