    Instructor

    Greetings, I'm Just a Girl from Hollywood—Mom, Mentor, and Your Biggest Child's Cheerleader Born and raised in sunny Hollywood, Florida, I'm a proud mom of three incredible daughters—Skye, Emma, and Ava—who are my greatest blessings and daily inspiration. As a 30+ year teacher of English Language Arts, College of Education professor, lifelong yogi, and lover of Hollywood beach (skate, swim, SUP, kayak), I bring joy, movement, and mindfulness into everything I do. Whether I’m teaching, parenting, or paddling, I build sacred spaces—classrooms and homes alike—around connection, care, and calm. I’m your child's safe space, your steady guide, and your child's number-one fan. This summer, join me for Reader’s Theater—a fun, heart-centered K–12 program that helps kids grow in confidence, creativity, and reading fluency. Let’s make magic together—on the page and in life.

🌟 🏡 Our Learning Space🌟 🏡 This is not a traditional classroom—it’s a reader’s wonderland where learning feels like play and every child feels at home. A portion of my home is lovingly dedicated to nurturing young minds and imaginations. Children will read, act, laugh, and grow in one open space filled with: - A cozy library nook brimming with books and book art - Inspiring corners for music and movement - Hammocks for daydreaming or reading in comfort - Plenty of room to sprawl out on pillows, rugs, and the floor 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 Meet Our Animal Friends 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 Bear – a sweet, safe black lab who is obsessed with fetch! Don't toss what he brings you, even if he begs! Macho – a tiny, old, black Pomeranian who wants a lap and whose costumes match the stories we read. Julia, Ellie, Alfie– three shy cats usually napping in tucked-away spots, but occasionally curious If your child has any allergies or concerns around animals, please let me know ahead of time. I’m happy to make accommodations. 🕰️ Drop-Off (or Stay) Details: - Please aim to arrive 5–10 minutes before class begins. - Pick-up is prompt at the end of class, as transitions are important to our flow. 🎉 Want to Host a Freely Reading Event at Your Place? I also bring the Reader’s Theater magic to homes for: - Birthday parties - Book club gatherings - Special events and themed reading days A slightly higher fee applies for travel and setup, but the joy is the same! 💬 Final Notes: - Please send your child in comfy clothes ready for floor lounging, acting, reading, and stretching their imagination. I can’t wait to welcome your child into this creative, joyful space for reading, growing, and making memories. With warmth and wonder, Dawn Goldstein Founder & Guide, Freely Reading
