Experience
As a third generation Chinese-American born and raised in Boston, I'm passionate about integrating multicultural diversity and awareness in my lessons and focus on helping students become Global citizens and lifelong learners.
Teaching style
I'm a firm believer in utilizing the philosophy of Growth Mindset in order to build resiliency and perseverance in my students. I enjoy teaching students about history in order to learn from our past mistakes and become a kinder and more empathetic future generation.
My own education history
I received my B.A. from Wellesley College and my M.Ed. from Lesley University. Prior to becoming a teacher in 2013, I worked as a fashion designer for seven years in Massachusetts and New York.
Additional biographical information
I enjoy traveling and have had the opportunity to paint murals with children in Morocco and teach English, fashion design and traditional Chinese dance to students in Cambodia. I also love to bake and dance (occasionally at the same time!).
