Hobbies
I have a fair amount of experience working with children of varying ages. I taught piano lessons for three years in high school to elementary students. I later volunteered at the Laurel Learning Center, helping primarily with school-age child care (I also occasionally worked with the 2-5 year-olds), where I taught piano lessons, helped with homework, and provided other care.
