Tutor: Miss Faithanne Rukavina
Description: This beginner theater class is designed especially for young students who are learning to find their voice and feel comfortable in front of others. In a supportive homeschool co-op environment, students will grow in confidence while having fun through imaginative play, guided activities, and gentle performance practice.
Throughout the semester, students will:
• Practice speaking clearly and confidently
• Learn how to project their voice without shouting
• Build comfort standing in front of a group
• Develop expressive facial expressions and body language
• Learn teamwork and how to encourage one another
• Overcome stage nerves through positive rehearsal habits
Through creative drama games, storytelling, movement activities, and simple character exercises, students will gain tools that extend beyond the stage and helping them grow in communication, courage, and self-assurance in everyday life.
No child will ever be forced to perform alone before they are ready. Confidence will be built step by step in a safe, encouraging atmosphere.
The semester will end with a short, age-appropriate skit where students can proudly showcase what they’ve learned in a joyful and supportive performance setting.
As an instructor, Faithanne is passionate about mentoring students not only in theater skills but also in confidence, character, and finding their unique. Her heart is to create a space where every child feels seen, valued, and capable.
No previous theater experience is required — just a willingness to try!

Description: Though the words “music theory” can sound intimidating, in actuality, they are not. Like language, music theory has rules, is orderly, and builds on one concept
at a time, incorporating each concept into the next.
In this 1 semester class, we will learn the basic building blocks of music theory.
As we go we’ll put them together to learn how to create a musical “sentence”,
with structure, rhythm, harmony, and dynamics. This class will improve your
music singing and listening skills because you’ll have a better understanding of
how music it out together.
