Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a self-proclaimed foodie. One of my favorite foods is cheese. I love cheese because there are so many varieties and so many different ways to prepare it, use it in recipes, or just eat it. I am passionate about food, and especially cheese, and love sharing my passion for food with learners.Reviews
