Hello! My name is Calliope, and I live in sunny, Southern California with my husband, son, daughter and the amazing Kasey Doodle dog. I have 18 years of teaching experience in private schools, homeschooling my two children and teaching English to children in China, Japan and Mongolia. I also have a Bachelor’s degree from U.C.L.A. in History and Education.
I would love to teach your child about all the “ins-and-outs” of the English language and reading skills, Social Studies, and even a little cooking and crafting. I also offer classes on life skills, event planning, and teenage entrepreneurship.
I believe in encouraging as much student output as possible during our classes. Children will learn best when they feel involved and every child in my classroom is important and greatly valued. I want children to see that what they are learning is relevant to their lives and taught in a genuine and caring manner.
I promise any student of mine will leave my class with a smile on their face and excitement about the content they just learned. I can’t wait to see you in the classroom!
