Complete disclaimer! This teaching certificate is expired, due to not teaching in a public school, still is was attained! Also, since there is not another place to put it, I put up Actors' Equity as my union affiliation because I AM a union member in good standing with Stage Directors and Choreographers. This Take Lessons site doesn't have that option, and even though I've requested it, I'll leave this "sister" organization up until they have the option. Important to know I'm a member of a union, just the correct one!
