Hi there! After spending my 20s and 30s working in customer service and the wine industry, I’ve recently rediscovered my passion for education, learning, and teaching. I have a background in getting things done, and I’m told I have the soul of a true teacher.
I spent the past two years assisting a very talented young man complete his master’s degree. Before that, I regularly held informal instruction sessions with coworkers and friends to help them improve their English. The most enjoyable aspect of wine was always education: introducing people to new perspectives and tastes. My passion has always been the acquisition and passing on of information and knowledge, and my background in service has given me unique ways to motivate and connect with people of all ages.
What I lack in formal experience, I more than make up for in enthusiasm, charisma, patience, expertise in many subjects, and the ability to get results. I don’t just help people succeed; I show them how to enjoy it every step of the way.
