Teacher expertise and credentials
During my 25 years as an educator, I have taught hundreds of students and always strive to make learning fun and exciting. This class is especially special to me because my husband is Jamaican and my family has traveled to this beautiful island numerous times. Additionally, for the past nine years, my husband and I have been the owners of a catering company that specializes in Jamaican cuisine. Jamaican food is a staple in my home, and I’m excited to share my love of this delicious food with learners! Reviews
