Experience Summary
As a professional actor,theatre educator and graduate of the University of Central Florida's Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Performance Conservatory, I am asked to read aloud and research great pieces of literature every day. In my experience as a theatre educator, I have worked with students ages 5-25 at various reading and writing levels, in creating, editing, and memorizing literary materials in a quick and efficient manner. For my personal benefit I have developed methods of speed reading and advanced reading comprehension that I would love to share with others to advance their reading experience and enjoyment at any level. There is no reason every individual should not have an appreciation and enjoyment of reading and drama.
Teaching Style
It is my passion to open the world of reading and drama up to students of all ages. Whether you have a five year old who is struggling to keep up at the kindergarten level, you are an adult who just never had a knack for reading comprehension or reading aloud, or you'd like to hone your acting skills, I would be thrilled to find a technique for teaching that will fit your personal style of learning. I understand that repetition and drills is not the best method of teaching for most individuals and is certainly not helpful when we are trying to make those reading skills second nature. Let’s work together to make you or your student a more comfortable reader or actor.
