Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Hey there, 

I am so glad you are checking out my profile - welcome! Let me tell you a little about who I am.

With over a decade of experience teaching and tutoring kids of all ages I bring a unique mix of both hands-on real-life expertise as well as plenty of knowledge.  I believe the two go closely hand in hand and vital for success in today’s world. My teaching style is all about discussions and engagement.  I strive for my students to think creatively, analytically and outside the box, constantly applying what they learn to themselves and the real world. 

I've happily transitioned to full time on outschool doing what I love! Under my roster of classes you will find: economics,  entrepreneurship, money, finance, career studies, arts & crafts, and art history.  I keep my class sizes at a maximum of 6-8, to ensure every child is engaged and has an opportunity to participate. 

About my background: I have an honours degree in Financial and Business Economics, as well as a background in languages (English, Russian, French and Spanish), literature, writing, and art and almost decade in the world of business where I owned and operated my own successful event planning company. My classes are intentionally diverse - I am equally well-versed and equipped in teaching them all with love and passion and above all else - a thorough understanding of the subject matter and how to teach it to my students. 

I really look forward to seeing you in my classroom!
