5 Good Things about MY Cooking Class

1. BASICS OF COOKING : When I first start a cooking class, my students have to know the fundamentals of cooking. These basics of cooking can include the type of pans I will be using in my class, detailed explanations of various cooking techniques, basic rules of the kitchen, appliance safety and knife safety.
2. Cooking Handouts :My cooking class needs handouts. It includes information and reminders of important concepts you want them to remember. It also includes the recipes I will be showing my students how to make.
3. Start Small : I don't want to throw my students into a practical cooking lesson by having them cook an elaborate 5 course meal. I start with small dishes with limited ingredients. Cooking is always learnt by Starting Basic dishes and then Making Great Dishes.
4. TESTING TIME : My cooking class have invisible tests that students take without knowing that they are being Tested before being advanced to the next lesson.I have a practical exam based on their general cooking knowledge & to properly prepare a dish that I taught in class.
5. Competition : This is Great Fun . I Allow my students to experiment with food. This shows me how much my students have learnt . I judge the dishes and declare an overall winner.
