TEACHING
As a theatre educator, my goal is to facilitate the skills necessary for my students to succeed in the professional world. To do this, I will help students overcome artistic obstacles, walk them through moments of perceived failure, and allow them to experience the satisfaction of hard work paid off. My goal is to treat each student equally, and hold each the same standard of excellence.
