I've gained a reputation as a Shakespeare Whisperer--students come away from my classes loving Shakespeare, and wanting more of the Bard. Some parent comments on my Shakespeare teaching include:

"A brilliant and inspirational teacher. My girls come away from class so energized by Shakespeare! If you want thorough, organized information that engages students and sticks, this is your teacher. Highly recommend!" -Amie

"...[Merium's] clear speech, down to earth personality and passion for literature shined through.." -Keisha

"Merium was a great teacher, who readily engaged the kids with her teaching style and the content. She brought Shakespeare alive for them. They had quite an animated discussion!" --Jennifer M.

"The teacher presented interesting ideas, concepts, and information in a gentle and interesting way that was age appropriate while respecting the kids abilities...My son finished the class with a huge smile - said he loved it and that he wants to learn more about Shakespeare." --Dr. K

"Thanks to an inspiring teacher who is clearly passionate about her subject area and teaching young minds, my daughter had a splendid time being introduced to Shakespeare..." --Amy B.
