If there is a particular material or topic you'd like me to cover, let me know. I will see if I can fit it in!

Childcare will be provided for currently-enrolled students only.

You will receive an email regarding this closer to the date and larger classes may have a sign-up for time slots to avoid over-crowding in the classroom.
