I cannot say enough positive things about Ms. Mimi! Our preschool classes adored her! Ms. Mimi was fun, creative, patient, and wonderful with our preschool friends. She brought so much spirit, imagination, and personality to her practice, sharing an engaging drama class with us! Thank you, Ms. Mimi! We would love to have you back and would highly recommend you!
Sydney Albers- Spark Faculty
My students LOVED Ms. Mimi. Some of them came to school saying, “Today is drama class!” with great excitement for the second and third classes. The children actively participated in her activities and genuinely enjoyed her teaching. It was a nice break for me as a teacher to follow and model instead of lead activities. I believe my students learned a lot, and I did too! Her classes helped me plan our class performance and gave me some great ideas that I had not considered. I hope we get to have her back again next year!
Amy Newsom- Spark Faculty
Mimi was so wonderful to have working with my students. She spoke in respectful language, reaching all the students. She made it fun and creative.
Mike Halloway- Mackintosh Physical Education Educator
So many students have shared that they want more of Mimi and Dance classes. Students felt noticed and connected well with her. She was truly amazing.
I noticed students who lack comfort and confidence in their own body awareness connect to their own movement self-expression in a way that was beautiful to behold. I also saw students who were skeptical of “doing dance” let loose, have fun, and leave the room saying, “maybe dance isn’t so bad after all.
Kristel Jelinek Brown- Mackintosh Performing Arts Educator
Mimi is a child whisperer! The kids were entirely engaged all morning in creative play and movement. Mimi inspires them to really delve into their imaginations with dance, art, stories and conversations. She guided our creative dance workshop with energy and enthusiasm and allowed space for kids to contribute their ideas and let their imaginations run wild! What a fun day for our kids!
Director of Family Ministry- Foothills Unitarian Universalist Church
My kids told me how AWESOME the spring break camps were. They both had a blast each day. And what a gift to families.
