My teaching experience began in high school, as I began teaching children in a group setting. I worked at a children's educational summer camp where I instructed choirs and chorus singers for Musical Theater.

Anyone willing to put in the effort and put their talent on display for correction and review is very brave and I honor that bravery. Read More
