Teaching Approach: This is a skill-based class. Lectures are released once weekly. Each week there will be a lecture describing the signs that we are covering for the week, in which there will be both written descriptions and video examples. Short skill lectures will also be included each week, which contain step by step instructions that are written out followed by video examples. Most videos are short but some may be up to a couple minutes. The videos do not require the ability to hear them in order to understand what’s going on. For each skill lecture, the suggested homework is listed on the bottom of the lecture. This class will work best for students who enjoy reading text lectures and watching videos that demonstrate the steps detailed in the written portion of the lecture. The steps for teaching each skill are broken down and laid out in a structured way.

Nicole Wiebusch (she/her) started competing in dog sports as a teenager in the 90’s and quickly became addicted to the sport of obedience. In 2001, she acquired a golden retriever named Tucker who taught her that traditional methods weren’t the best way to a happy confident dog.
