About Ben

Experience: 5 yrs

Hi, I'm Ben! I'm 23, and I love working with children. I was most recently a preschool teacher at Brooklyn Community Services. Before becoming a teacher, I graduated from the University of Washington with a B. A. in Political Science and I'm CPR Certified. During high school and college I worked at a summer camp for kids ages 5-12 for 4 years, and many years of volunteering preceded this. I love music, sports, politics, reading, hiking, cooking, traveling and learning more about the world. I pride myself on being a lifelong learner, and the idea of knowing something new about the world is something that inspires and excites me. One of my strongest areas of expertise is music. I've played piano for over 15 years and guitar for more than 8, and I love to share my passion for music with children in hopes that they love it as much as I do.
