I have been a studio teacher since 1976 and prior to that I taught in the classroom in Los Angeles Unified for 7 years. Besides teaching, I worked to become a counselor in the school system as well as set up numerous groups in the inner city schools to mediate problems they were experiencing at that time.
REFERENCES
I will be happy to provide references from both parents, students and production personnel when requested.
COMMENTS
I enjoy doing location work and will travel out of the country as well. I have been to South Africa as well as Canada and Jamiaca for work.
