Hi I'm Varina, a passionate educator and freelancer with a Bachelor’s Degree in Language, Literature, & Writing, and a minor in Communication and Theatre Arts from Eastern Michigan University.

I have over 11 years of experience in teaching English Language Arts and ESL to students from diverse backgrounds and cultures. I have taught around the globe, from Kuwait to South Korea, China, my home state of Michigan, and online.

I enjoy international travel, eating good food and drink, exploring different cultures, practicing different languages, visiting museums & exhibitions, watching theatre and dance performances, historical sites, being out in nature, and the list goes on.

I believe we should be able to live and serve each other in ways that feed our spirits. Authenticity is key.
