Hobbies
My hobbies are music and singing. I love a good crossword puzzle once in awhile. Besides visiting Starbucks for coffee and tea. I also love to teach and interact with children and find that their different interests are unique to each individual. I don't mind breaking the ice to get to know students and make use of educational games as a teaching tool for learning. Every student has different way of learning concepts. I try to make it fun and an exciting learning experience.
