I have been teaching since grade school, when my sister and I always got to be the teachers whenever we played school because WE had the nun costumes. (Thanks, Mom!) As a high school sophomore, I was asked to teach the freshman German class because I had learned so much of the language on my own, with the help of an older sister who was studying it in college. (Thanks, Sis!) As a graduate student, my advisor asked me to teach a year-long course in electronic music, a subject that at the time I didnt know well at all. (Thanks, Dr. Stokes!) Thats when I really learned how to learn and how to teach - fast. My background in the arts enables me to take novel approaches to asking questions, while my background in health care gives me a strong appreciation for arriving at evidence-based answers. That combination of discipline and creativity is something that I try to pass along to all of my students. If that appeals to you, I would love to work with you!

Since then, I have taught a variety of subjects to everyone from preschoolers to adult learners - and Im still going to school myself.My background in the arts enables me to take novel approaches to asking questions, while my background in health care gives me a strong appreciation for arriving at evidence-based answers.
