Additional biographical information

The products that I am creating teach science and math concepts in a song. The songs hold the listener's attention by offering catchy melodies, comedy, multi-cultural influences and jazz harmony. The goal is to teach the student HOW to listen, by using humor, catchy phrases, hip songs, etc.-- and through repetition (loops) - the subject matter would be easier to retain. Science education appears to reward the visual learner who sees and regurgitates information on the written page which is fabulous. However, my own educational experience began to blossom after I discovered how to use musical mnemonics as a retention device for conquering challenging subjects. (Note: I only have a few of these up here on TPT because I wanted to see if there was a demand for this.) PLEASE SUGGEST SUBJECTS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE ADDRESSED and I will create more songs. Also, check out my author website at: www.denisedangelojones.com for info on, "The Spanish Influenza" book that i wrote in 2020.
