...my expertise in childhood education and management, I am dedicated to establishing well-rounded high quality programs in a safe and happy environment.  Learning a second language is shown to benefit children's cognitive development,  academic achievement, and  boost brain performance.  I believe each child has their own unique intelligence, and embrace the opportunity to work with them.  We will do our best to help each child reach their potential.

Over 6 years working experiences with kids k-5 in Chinese teaching. I used to work in Bilingual daily school and after school. ie. Yew Chung International School.

My teaching philosophy is that I believe every child is unique and needs a secure and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually and socially. It is my goal as an educator to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports taking risks and invites creativity and the sharing of ideas. I believe the child’s natural curiosity should guide him or her and that mutual respect should be established.

I enjoy spending time with children. Education is the career I am perusing for my whole life. I never stop learning while I am teaching. I feel young and energetic when I am together with my students. In our competitive society it is important for students to not only receive a solid formal education, but to work with someone who is aware of and supports their individual needs. As educators, we should build the foundation of learning into the world community to help children become caring and active members of society.

... helping my parents teach Kindergarteners then being a camp counselor for fifth graders in high school for the Web of Life Field School in Camp Campbell. I earned my BFA in Fine Art Painting & Drawing from the Academy of Art in 2006 and began teaching Academic realism to children and adults in 2007.  I also loves dance and performed with Los Ayres studio in San Leandro learning classical ballet, jazz, and Hawaiian dance. When performed my first singing solo at age 5 and at 10, I was Oliver Twist in the musical Oliver! I love science and loves making art about science, and specializes in portraiture.  I loves to teach art and help kids realize they can do things they never imagined! 

With over 30 years in the classroom, my passion for teaching burns brighter than ever. Each day, I witness the magic of young minds blossoming, fueled by my love for creating engaging games and playful interactions that turn learning into an unforgettable adventure. As a responsible guide, I nurture not just academic growth, but also the courage to explore, the joy of discovery, and the confidence to shine.

I am passionate about teaching & believe kids learn best when a class is as interactive as possible. I have been a volunteer for a variety of science and engineering projects, and competitions.

I love to teach kids and have been teaching Mandarin in many different ways, especially for the following benefits: 

· Being able to be creative with different teaching methods based upon subject and learning goals.

· Watching students develop not only to master knowledge but also social skills, critical thinking, and self-efficacy.

· Refining my communication skills during each teaching experience to continue growing as an educator.

· Working together with other teachers, staff, administration, and parents to provide a learning-centered environment tailored to the appropriate developmental stage.
