I ... wanted to reach out to you to see if you may be interested in teaching a class for our local adult-education program. I act as a Site Coordinator for Northwest Connecticut's Region 1's EdAdvance program, and I am currently planning our Spring 2027 course offerings. Would you be interested in teaching an Introduction to Falconry Class--or a similar class--for adult students ages 18+? We are doing online and in-person classes. It sounds like a wonderful subject for students to learn more about. Teaching a class can also be a great opportunity to broaden the instructor's audience and to emphasize one's brand. I enclose a very brief Course Proposal Form to submit along with a brief bio/syllabus to that effect for your completion at your earliest convenience. We pay our instructors $20/hour.
Spring 2027 non-credit enrichment online classes can be held as well. Many of our online courses are held via Zoom (either the instructor's own Zoom account, which can be held anytime, or a Zoom account that our agency can provide you that comes with a moderator to handle the technical stuff, which can be held Monday through Thursday, anytime between 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.).
In-person classes can be held at any of our many sites that range from Falls Village to Watertown (chances are, one of our sites is near you). Depending on the site's schedule, in-person classes are held Mondays through Thursdays, between 6:00 and 8:00 p.m. All classes are weekly and can be scheduled anytime between February 2027 and mid-May 2027, excluding holidays. Classes are generally two hours maximum. The number of classes in a course can range from one class to a total five maximum; if a second-level course to the subject is desired, we can develop that as well.
We are putting together courses for the Spring 2027 semester in the coming months. Many returning instructors will soon be filling up available time slots and classrooms. We would like to fit in your class. Please be sure to submit the completed very brief Course Proposal Form at your earliest convenience if you are interested. EdAdvance reaches about 81,000 households, and nearly double the number of individuals, and it would be great to have such a class among our courses offered. Our courses have been acclaimed by several local media, including most recently by the newspaper The Republican-American (Waterbury, CT).
If you have any questions, please reach out to me at the below contact information. I hope you will consider doing a class. I look forward to being in touch. I appreciate your kind consideration. Please let me know if you have any questions and I will be glad to assist.
Thank you,
Noel Ambery II EdAdvance Site Coordinator Region 1/Falls Village P.O. Box 909 | 355 Goshen Road, Litchfield, CT 06759 O: 860.307.5631 | F: 860.567.3381 | fb | tw
