Teacher expertise and credentials

Aloha from Hawai’i Island,
My name is Aspen, you can call me Ms. or Ms. Aspen. I am filled with enthusiasm to tell you I am here to get creative through writing, art and conservation& sustainability courses. I also have a professional background in health and fitness and would be happy to offer courses in that area when interests is expressed. 

The philosophy behind my teaching includes four key concepts: 
Communication is key 
Creative, always
Patience practiced by all involved 
Find the fire that excites you

Something fun to know about me, is that I found the fire that excites me, actually, I found a few of them! One has driven my career choices and the other simply brings me daily happiness, and that is surfing. So if you ever notice my hair is a wet bun on top of my head during class, it’s just a reminder to find what you love and do it each and every day, and for me that is to surf. 

I look forward to working with you in the near future! 

Aloha!
