Objective: My objective is to find a position teaching ESL and<br />
Drama to youth and adults in the New York City area. Overall, my ESL<br />
teaching goals are to use creativity to target rote learning, develop selfdiscipline,<br />
critical thinking and most importantly inspire confidence<br />
needed for expression. In regards to Drama instruction, my focus lies in<br />
the Meisner Improvisation Technique, as a way to develop one’s authenticity through various<br />
systematic exercises for a resulting solid foundation.<br />
