Instruments: Cello

I am excited to begin teaching music. Along with my experience as a classroom teacher, I have also tutored English to ESOL students. As a tutor, I assigned homework regularly and kept students accountable by checking for completion and accuracy.

Throughout teaching I play duets with students, and encourage students to become comfortable with performance and collaboration. Read More
