Dance is a Passion

I started my dance career when I was 2 and I trained at Top Hat Dance Centre in Lewisville and I trained there until my junior year in High School. While I was there I trained in ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, hip hop, and pointe. When I was 6 I was invited to the competition team and I continued to be a part of that until I joined drill team in 2008. Before joining drill team in high school I was a member of the JV cheerleading team at Lewisville HIgh. While on that team I also competed on a competition cheer team. Junior year I joined drill team where I was on the elite hip hop and jazz teams while also making every competition dance. My senior year I was awarded Senior Lieutenant right under the captain. While in this position I choreographed solos, team, and officer routines. At competition I was awarded an outstanding solo award and at the end of the year I was awarded best overal ... read more

My comments on tutoring Ballet : 4yrs class and theater

I would describe my teaching style as dynamic, creative student-centered
I've either taught or tutored in some form or fashion for over 17yrs now. I've had ages 3yrs to 22yrs old covering all manner of subjects and hobbies. One of my most rewarding experience was with an 18 year old special needs 10th grader ready to drop out of school. We met 2-3x a week for 6mths. In that time he raised his GPA from 1.2 to 2.7. He completed his 10th grade year and went on to take and pass the G.E.D. the following year.

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a B.A. in English, cum laude, from John Brown University, with a concentration in Composition and Rhetoric and a minor in Business Administration. For the last three years, I have worked as a copyeditor/proofreader for a large ad agency in Dallas, TX. Before that, I worked as a writing consultant in my university's writing center throughout college, helping students write better papers through support every step of the way--from brainstorming topics to the final proofread before turning the paper in.
I am passionate about language and writing and believe that everyone could be an excellent reader and writer if they learn a few basic skills. I have the ability to meet students where they are at in the learning process and communicate the subject matter in a direct way that enables them to understand the root of what I am teaching. I am also gentle and patient, as I have taugh ... read more
