"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."

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.

I have a deep love for needlework and crochet and for teaching. I have been involved in both for almost 20 years now. I enjoy watching people's eyes light up with understanding. I also find a lot of satisfaction seeing how my students skills change overtime. I commit to help all my students achieve their personal goals. I particularly enjoy working with students with special needs.

About Katie
My first knitting student was my mom! Hey, my name is Katie. I'm looking forward to meeting you and helping you fall in love with knitting!
I loved teaching my mom knitting because she taught me so many different skills and I enjoyed spending time with her and teaching her something new. In college, I started a knitting club with my roommate and we knit in the library on the weekends. I taught my friends how to knit their first hats, scarves, and pot holders.
I love to knit, crochet, run, make jokes, and get to know people. I can't wait to meet you! I'm easy going but I will also challenge you to knit and crochet well. I look forward to checking out what projects you'd like to create!

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 myself 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.

About Arletta
I love teaching and meeting new people. But be warned I like to have fun while I am teaching. In fact I was voted most sarcastic teacher by my students last year. That must be a good thing because I almost always have a waiting list to get into my classes. Don't worry about the sarcasm being aimed at you; it is mostly at my self or a commentary on some issue that defies logic or good sense. Even though I like to have fun, I also love seeing someone understand something they didn't before I taught them. I feel my greatest accomplishment in my history classes is when my students begin thinking for themselves using the analytical and critical thinking tools they have developed in my class.

About Wendi
HI, I'm a self-taught designer and decided to follow my passion after being pushed by others who love my work. After helping many friends and family members decorate and create their unique spaces. I wanted to help others have a wonderful space to return to.
I have worked with about every kind of style and nothing scares me. I have the ability to create and teach others to be bold. Your home and office should reflect who you are. You also don't have to break the bank in doing so. I have taken garage sale finds and turned them into beautiful pieces. There are certain elements that you must have in any room to make it complete, and I know how to do this.
I also can organize every room in your home to help you save time in your everyday life.
I hope to meet you soon.
