About Alyssa

Experience: 20 yrs

As the oldest of six children, and over 20 cousins, I have been around babies and small children for my entire life. My undergrad degree is in English and I hold a MFA in Poetry. I have 5+ years of tutoring and writing coaching (and help ALL of my family of course!) FoLiterature, Writing & Reading Adjunct Professor. I am passionate about education and that learning is not just found in school books, but exists all around us everyday. And if all of that wasn't impressive enough I have been frequently cited as the World's Best Storybook Reader and Leader of the Best Dance Parties. :)
