Class will restart in the Fall!

This class will be upbeat, engaging and full of learning. I am a calm and patient teacher who works hard to meet the needs of all learners. Therefore, each week will have a “main topic”, but the needs of students will be put above all.

This class is ongoing and you can enroll whenever you choose, even if you didn’t attend the previous class.
Students will be provided with printable materials each week. Please have materials readily available.

I look forward to meeting your learner!
