ONLINE SEX EDUCATION COURSE FOR TEENS

EDSE now offers an exclusive online sex education course that is designed as an alternative or supplement to the sex education that is offered in your teenager’s school system. Over the course of 10 weeks, EDSE Lead Educator Anne Hodder-Shipp guides students through a comprehensive, inclusive, and expansive curriculum that explores essential sex ed topics with a compassionate and trauma-informed lens. This curriculum was created personally by Anne after 2 1/2 years teaching sex ed to 9th graders throughout Los Angeles Unified School District and 3 years (and counting) facilitating Gender & Sexuality group classes to teenagers in residential mental health treatment programs.

This turnkey private sex ed course might be a good fit if:

  • You feel uncertain or lack confidence about the sex education being offered in your school district.

  • Sex education is not offered at your teenager’s school, or it was canceled due to COVID-19 restrictions.

  • Your teenager is (or might be) LGBTQIA+ and you want them to receive sex ed that affirms their sexuality.

  • Your teenager is savvy and socially aware, and they won’t settle for basic sex ed programming.

  • Your teenager is asking questions that you’re not sure how to answer — and likely won’t be addressed in school.

  • You homeschool your teenager and want to make sure that sex ed is covered appropriately.

  • You want your teenager to be able to learn from the comfort and privacy of their home or room.

  • Your teenager has asked you to find them sex ed classes that don’t suck.

HOW IT WORKS:

  • Parents and caregivers typically work together to curate a group of teenagers to attend the course together. This is ideal for students who would not feel comfortable learning about sexuality among others they don’t know personally. Bonus: the larger the group, the more economically accessible it becomes.

  • Some parents and caregivers prefer that their teenager attends the course one-on-one with Anne, or that only siblings attend together. That’s OK, too!

  • Schedule a free 15-minute call with Anne to ensure if they are the right fit and to answer any initial questions.
