"As I have gotten older I needed something to occupy my free time. I decided I wanted to learn to crochet and knit so I could make stuff for my grand babi
es. I found Sandra' information online and I couldn't be more satisfied with her teaching abilities. I learned basic crochet techniques and when I feel more comfortable I will definitely be giving her a call."

"Kaitlin was very patient with me and helped me to understand the basics of crocheting. Taking a class in person instead of online is definitely the way to
go as crocheting is a very hands on and detail oriented task!"

About Jennifer
I am a professional singer-songwriter and have been teaching lessons fulltime for the last 12 years. I teach students of all ages and levels of experience. My current range of students include: kids with learning/developmental disabilities, teenagers who have starred in school musicals, and performing adult singer-songwriters. Whatever your background or desire, I can help you to cultivate your unique musical potential, and to strengthen your creative voice.
As a professional vocalist and pianist, I have worked freelance, in a variety of settings, over the years--including solo, in wedding bands, small jazz and rock/pop groups and with big bands. I have been singing with the Mood Swings Big Band for 6+ years. During that time, we have performed at the White House, the Chamber of Commerce and in Kennebunkport, Maine (at the Bush e

About Pam
Hello,
My name is Pam.
My educational background is a mixture of biology (and the other sciences) and humanities (political science, comparative studies, and anthropology). Throughout my educational career, I have always made myself available to tutor other students in courses that I have previously performed well. It is my goal to have you understand the subject fully so that you can use it later on in life, especially when it applies to something you are interested in. I have a little over 5 years of experience with one-on-one tutoring, and about 3 years working in group sessions of up to 5 people.

About Bora
Know thyself is the saying, and it applies to chess as well.
Everyone is different. Each has his/her different objectives. Everyone also his/her own strengths and weaknesses.
I tailor the lessons taking these into the account, and focusing on improving on the weaknesses within the framework of the student's goals.
I try to put the emphasis on calculation, middle-game positions, and endgames, however.

About Faiza
I'm a tailor and instructor. I started tailoring and people liked the details in my work. They showed their interest in sewing and I love to teach. I composed courses and help them understand each thing the way I wanted my self to be taught in detail. I have taught absolute beginners in just 3 weeks to sew their own tunics.
I graduated with a Bachelors in Business Administration and worked as an Accountant prior to teaching. Later I realized sewing is as important to me as breathing. I help students build confidence in sewing. I love the feeling when students are able to complete their courses and practically apply their knowledge.
