Free Classes Anyone?

May is a busy month for me.  I am teaching four – F.O.U.R. – classes at my local FamilySearch center.  Plus I am helping with two family history related meetings.  One to train other consultants and one to help some people one-on-one with their own research.  It’s sort of like a class.  For that one, I have to pre-research someone’s tree.  Just to top it all off, I teach a weekly class on Sundays at my church.  Busy, busy!  But awesome – I love it.

Curious what I’m teaching?

Well, let me tell you.

• This Thursday – “Online is Not the Only Option, Effective Use of Microfilm/fiche“
• This Sunday – “Descendancy Research“
• The last Thursday in May – “Blogging for Beginners“, I know that doesn’t really sound like a family history class but it is.  The class is going to focus on how blogging can help your family history efforts.  It’s going to be awesome.
• Not yet scheduled but sometime VERY soon in May – An as yet untitled class for teenagers.  It is a new program being developed by our center.  It will run for 5 weeks and I am teaching week 2.  We will be teaching this 5 week course over and over for at least a year so I’ll get plenty of use out of that PowerPoint and handout.

Teaching is a happy place for me so I am looking forward to the next several weeks.  I love teaching at our center.  I think it’s wonderful that we offer such a wide range of classes.
