I have been working as a knitting and crochet teaching artist since 2010 and as an English as a Second Language Instructor since 2008. My lessons are always student focused and encourage you to practice the specific skill during the lesson while giving you the opportunity to ask questions and develop your skill set.

Please note, all lesson times are subject to weekly availability. 

If you would like lessons at my location in New Jersey, purchase the lesson as 'online' and the exact location will be sent via email after purchasing lessons. Student lessons are done out of the public library near my location if you would like to meet me at my location. For security reasons, I cannot list my specific location on this public facing website. Please don't hesitate to message me about any questions in regards to this.

Erin was very calm and patient with me as I tried to set up my webcam and learn to crochet

Erin is a great listener and was able to meet me where I am in the process of learning crochet.  I look forward to continuing learning from her.

Our lesson with Erin was super fun!  She came to us and tailored the lesson for our needs.  After some practice we plan on scheduling some more!  Thank you, Erin! 

Erin was professional, knowledgeable and kind. I am an intermediate crocheter but was having difficulty understanding instructions to make an afghan. I’d purchased all the yarn, and there were no schematics. Erin worked with me and even sent a short video she’d made for me showing the last three stitches, with a pointer, to indicate where the hook was supposed to be inserted and brought out. I was very impressed! I would definitely ask for Erin to help me again.

Very helpful in letting myself get out of my own way and uncomplicating a simple pattern

Erin was very patient and I appreciated it when I had technical difficulties.  But we got through it and I will be scheduling again!

She asked me questions, I answered. Then she indicated what needed to be corrected. We talked, in general, time passed quickly. I liked it

ERIN IS GREAT HELPING ME WITH MY QUESTIONS AND TEACHING ME NEW PATTERNS

Erin is excellent instructor! i am looking forward to learning more with her.
thank you
