About Siddharth G.
CloseAbout Siddharth
Hi there, my name is Siddharth and I have been teaching chess in public and private schools, including private lessons, over the last three years.
I love to see students grow with each lesson and accomplish their goals. Under my tutelage, I have helped students advance from beginner level to tournament level competition. Recently, two of my students have won in their respective tournaments.
I attended De Monte Fort University in England and earned my degree in Textile Technology and Business Management in 1976. Since then I have been fortunate to be able to travel worldwide.
I enjoy teaching children of all ages, as well as adults. My philosophy is to make chess a fun experience while improving my students' technical skills.
I look forward to helping you reach your goals.

About Sharron J.
CloseAbout Sharron
My resume includes graduating from the Baltimore School for the Arts and continued studies at the Maryland Institute College of Art until I decided I didn’t want to be a “Starving Artist”. So, I graduated from the University of Baltimore with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Business Administration with a minor in Human Resources Management. My education also includes 27 graduate credits that were leading to a Master’s in Public Administration when I decided to discontinue that path. After twenty-five years in the public sector, I decided to revisit my passion for art in my spare time. As a youngster, I remember wanting to teach art in schools, but I did not want the restrictions that are present in the classrooms and more so today. All forms of art is a freeing practice that is practiced and developed over time. For mor information, web

Hi, I'm Michelle! I've been sewing for most of my life. As a little girl I used to sew doll clothes and matching clothes for me and my friends! I'm a creative at heart and love to sew, bake, play the piano and honestly most creative endeavors. You can find me at home on a weeknight jamming to 90's love ballads, watching HGTV/Cooking channel while I sew. I love playing with patterns, prints, textures and making new outfits and learning new skills. By day, I work with special needs kids. I have taught piano lessons and sewing lessons and currently am focusing more time on teaching sewing to eager students.
