Dr. Karen made the class a safe area to make mistakes

Public review of Vocabulary Building with Latin and Greek Roots and Affixes, Level 1 on Outschool: 

Our son is 10 and enjoyed learning about the building blocks Greek & Latin roots into words he uses as well as understanding how to explore the meaning of new words; we could see the wheels turning in his head during the class. He took chances on words that were similar to what they were learning but did not have the same meaning and Dr. Karen provided wonderful redirection and made the class a safe area to make mistakes, which is important to us in our sons learning. Rating 5/5

I FEEL PREPARED AND READY

[ . . . ] I believe that without the aforementioned courses and Dr. Wieland’s presence, I would have been struggling to tread water my first few years, compared to how I feel, which is prepared and read to apply what I  learned and practiced in my own reading classroom.

Blown away by her persistence and creativity

My daughter got so much out of her sessions with Dr. Karen. We were blown away with her persistence and creativity. She was willing to change things up until she found the winning formula. Dr. Karen obviously loves her work. She has a passion for raising readers. Rating: 5 / 5

With Karen's work, we (St. Joe's) became without a doubt the place to go to seek excellence in musical theater voice, in both classical levels, popular levels, and classical literature

I worked with Karen Wieland for many years in the programs at St. Joseph’s Collegiate Institute, as well as an affiliate, friend, and advisor, when I was teaching at the State University of New York at Buffalo and Niagara University, and when I was working in professional and semi-professional theater in Buffalo. Paraphrasing the words of opera singer Nadine Asher Washington, who workshopped with Karen’s students at St. Joe’s in 1990, Karen is the best teacher she’s known, particularly … Read more
