現代書法基礎101：現代書法初學者班

Hello Parents!

Thank you for stopping by my profile. If there is a class you're interested in but you don't see your preferred time, please message me or send me a schedule request. I am excited to work with your student(s) on Outschool! 

In my classroom, I aim to create an encouraging, fun, and challenging environment so your student can grow in their artistic and academic skills. As a former Art Teacher, most of my classes are art-focused (calligraphy, drawing, hand-lettering, design, and script writing). These are subjects I love and have great experience in. We will have a blast creating and having fun while doing so! 

I have a Bachelors Degree of Science, where I majored in Business with an emphasis in Marketing, Design, and Communications. I also have my Advanced TEFL Teaching Certification. I have most recently been teaching ESL to Chinese students virtually for the past 3 years, and have taught over 3,600 classes thus far. It's been so fun learning how to engage and connect with students across the world while working in a virtual classroom. Before teaching English, I taught Art for 2 years at a Classical School. I had the joy of teaching all K-8th grade students, where I also specialized in teaching Spelling and Cursive. Prior to teaching K-8th graders, I worked with college students for 8 1/2 years as a University Adviser. It was my job to prepare college students for their college studies and career pursuits. 

As an addition to my career in education, I used my love for art, design, and hand-lettering to start an online clothing and gift shop in 2015. In our prime, the shop had even been featured on BuzzFeed and Huffington Post for our unique and fun t-shirts. It's been a blast watching simple hand-drawn lettering ideas turn into creative designs that sold on shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, and prints from my art studio. Definitely an exciting experience I am so grateful for!  

When I am outside the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, art, exercising, and reading. I hope to see your student in my classroom soon! 

Thanks for stopping by!
