I like being around children and I enjoy dancing and teaching dance. I try to encourage my students to be respectful and courteous to everyone that they come into contact with. I do my best to find something good in everybody. Sometimes my favorite students are the ones that are initially the most difficult to work with. I don't teach dance for the money. I teach because dancing has always been a passion of mine and I enjoy working with people. It makes me happy to see kids learning, becoming more confident and staying out of trouble. I like to meet people that have some interests and values of their own. I prefer to be with people who are more laid back as I am pretty easy going.
