Bio

I'm a full-time tutor with 18 years of experience with training and teaching children and young adults, in 4 countries. I've worked as a coach, caregiver, trainer and manager.

The most important thing to me, is helping a learner have confidence in themselves. I have a unique ability to see what people need. I love to make the environment feel fun and safe. My training as a coach, and history in the arts give me great skills for approaching challenges in new ways. I can make literature, (like Shakespeare) fun! I love empowering people

Education

• F.E.T. in Performing Arts - The National School of the Arts.
• Certificate in Musical Theater - New York Film Academy.
• I currently tutor English and Drama at a home school centre.
• Professional Actress.

Achievements

• The people I'm proudest of are my students, whose achievements are beyond what you can put on paper.

• I was incredibly proud of going to the New York Film Academy as it took me years to achieve that goal.
