Annie is an amazing teacher and really loves the kids. My son loved her class and really learned a lot from her this last semester. He’s looking forward to taking her class this spring.

Annie is a truly fantastic teacher!! She connects with her students in such a way that they just want to stay and hang out with her!! She is also very good at communicating clearly and effectively with parents. This particular class was just absolutely wonderful because not only was Annie doing what she always does in connecting and communicating with her students, but she also created art projects that were diverse and sooooo cute!!! Seriously, this is a wonderful class!!
