Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Ann Canfield. My background includes project management, hiring/managing staff, creating curriculum and teaching students/employees of all ages.  My project management skills are in a wide range industries such as customer service, sales, marketing, accounting, restaurants and manufacturing. I have a master’s degree in behavior analysis and therapy, a bachelors in computer information systems and I am a member of Toastmasters and a life coach with ICF.   My teaching style is a  gradual release method - I do, we do, you do. I create easy to understand curriculum and allow students to practice what they have learned in order to master it. I individualize curriculum in order to meet the student where they are to meet the objective. On a personal note - I enjoy seeing Broadway shows with my husband and teenage son in NYC and have been involved in teen theater. It is great to watch acting and singing skills improve from the audition to the final production of a show. I am an active member to Toastmasters for public speaking and leadership.  I also enjoy reading, hiking and nature photography.
