Hobbies
Teaching is at the heart of who I am. It has been a true privilege to teach/tutor so many amazing, hard-working students over the years. I love the look in a child's eyes when they achieve their goals while, at the same time, their self-esteem and confidence soar to new heights. I enjoy working out, sewing/crafts, reading, traveling and spending time with my children/family/friends. I am happy to forward my resume, as well as "tutoring client" references, upon request.
