Life long learner is my life passion
I worked my entire life with math, as student for 16 years and as a teacher for 30 years, so I believe that I can help you succeed. I love to work 1 on 1 with someone who really wants to do well in math. In my long career I had all kind of students, who liked or not mathematics, who had skin of any color, coming from all kind of environments, and I believed I helped everyone, but it is true that some people need more time than others to be good in math. I taught all subjects in math starti... Read more

Fairy godmother helps prepare children to begin Kindergarten
As an Infant Nurse, Preschool Teacher, parent and Nanny, I have always loved working with children and respect the uniqueness of each one. Learning should be non-threatening and fun. Because no two children are alike I try to find the best methods for yours. Most children this age love lots of hands-on activities including games and colorful graphics along with verbal explanations and discussions. Whatever skills we are working on my job is to find the key to your individual child. Tea... Read more

Piano instruction, ages 7 up. Reading, ear training, theory...
I've been teaching for over 40 years and performing for 50. My curriculum is initially classically based: sight reading, ear training, and theory. With time, the students preferences come into play. Classical is the base for knowledge, from which all other styles can be derived. I will take students from 7 years up. I have all the references you wish; 75% of my students continue learning/playing after they leave me. Last but not least, I make it a pleasurable experience. No "I hate pi... Read more

Teaching the way they Learn!
