Bella says: “Hi, I’m Bella! I began teaching almost a decade ago and have loved it from the first moment! Helping my students find their confidence in a subject or activity is one of the most rewarding things to experience. One of my favorite strategies is learning about a student’s passions and hobbies, then connecting them to the material to make it easier to understand. I have lots of experience navigating medical challenges and school at the same time, and am very open to chat if your child is going through something similar! In my spare time, I love listening to and playing music (I am an avid drummer and bassist), working out, and spending time with animals (ask me about my dog, Ace)! I also love to travel to hone my language skills, as I have lived in China and have family in Italy. I look forward to meeting and working with you!“
