Create some beautiful origami shapes with the help of an experienced teacher of 20 years
I am an origami artist and origami teacher with more than 20 years experience of teaching origami to children, adults and seniors. I live in NYC. I have been teaching origami in private and public schools as well as community centers, museums and senior centers. I work well with special needs children and adults. I use paper and materials you can find in your own home, like printing paper, napkins, dollar bills or business cards. Origami is not just another art or craft form. It is a way of acquiring multitude of skills, in a fun way . Origami engages students in learning basic math concepts like shape, size and number. In the process they learn patience and concentration sequencing and problem solving. Most importantly, people of all ages gain self esteem as they succeed in finishing a model and take pride of their work. They also find that the models they fold can serve them for practical purposes; All kind of boxes to store crayons, staples, A dish to put candies, a hand made card, all sort of flowers. Origami is a great non threatening activity which can provide an immediate reward and a sense of accomplishment to anyone, from age 5 to 99. You can hire me for an individual or group sessions.

As an origami teacher and an artist who lives in NYC. I have been teaching origami in prestigious private schools in NYC (Among them Bank street school, Spence school, and Hunter college) For many years I have taught origami at the 92stY and at the Museum of Natural History. I have been attending numerous origami conferences in the US and around the world, where I have had an opportunity to experience first hand the magic effect of origami on people. In addition to teaching Origami, I have created origami decorations for weddings, parties, and Christmas trees. You can hire me for teaching purposes or to run yours or your child's party.

Haggit is a wonderful instructor. She has a soft voice, calm demeanor and was very clear in her instructions. I had no problem completing the the tasks that she gave me to do.

We hired Haggit for a corporate event. I am so pleased that we did, Haggit's origami session was such a hit! Haggit was really easy to work with in advance when we were planning what to make during the session. The participants at the session had huge smiles on their faces and everyone left learning how to make 3 new things with origami!
