👩🏼‍🍳 Teaching Style:
My teaching style is interactive, engaging, and supportive. I focus on making learning fun and accessible, encouraging children to be curious and creative in the kitchen. I use a variety of teaching methods to cater to different learning styles, including visual aids, hands-on activities, and storytelling.

🍉 Recipes will be posted in the classroom on Sunday night, so that all learners and families will have time to shop and prepare as necessary.
