Apple Watch when teaching

Hi,


I am teaching some courses, and I am considering getting an Apple watch. Is there a way for the Apple watch to tell me about the remaining time? Suppose that one lecture is 45 min - I would like to be informed, say 10 min before, 5 min before and once those 45 min are over. Is there an app for this? Of course, I could set several alarms, but there might be an easier way.


Thanks!

Rather than alarms, "Timers" is a great app-- I keep it in the dock, so pressing the side button brings quickly gets to the timers. You can set one for 35 minutes, another for 40 minutes, and another for 44 minutes, and they all run simultaneously. You can see them on the watch face. If you set them once, they'll come up at the top of the list.


Or, as lobsterghost1 suggests, you can start them with Siri.
