	Jennifer Carnovale I'm Jenn. I grew up on Long Island but always longed to live in New York City. After I finished my Bachelor's, I moved to the city to pursue a Master's in Art Education. I've been living in Brooklyn for almost 7 years. I taught art to students ages 5 to 16. I have spent time overseas in England, Scotland, and France and have traveled to various places in the United States. I love to travel and my love for culture and language inspired me to pursue a second Master's in TESOL. When I'm not teaching or being a student, I like to go to the park, ride my bike, bake, see movies, and read.
	Steven Rewinski Hi, I am Steve Rewinski. I grew up in Southampton, New York, on the east end of Long Island. I graduated from The College at Brockport in New York, with a dual-major degree in Communications Theory and Philosophy. In College, I studied abroad and lived in Melbourne, Australia for over a year. I’ve just recently moved back to New York after living and teaching English in Tokyo, Japan for over two years. I’ve traveled to Europe many times, and seen over half of the US States. I used to be a chef, and I still enjoy experimenting with new dishes and having friends over for dinner parties. I’m really excited to teach, and show you all a wonderful New York experience.
	RONALD MICHEL I was raised in New York for most of my childhood. I spent my secondary years in the rural southern state of Mississippi. To live two very different ideological regions gave me a very good sense of the diversity and dynamics of the USA. Upon graduating from Hunter College with a BA in Political Science and Sociology, I decided to venture out in the world to broaden my interest in cultures and governments. I decided China would be a great place to start. I loved its rich history and wonderful people so much, I stayed there longer than I had planned to teach the youth English and American Culture.
	Eric Holland Hi, I'm Eric Holland. I'm from Boston and have lived in Taiwan and Japan as well as Honolulu before moving to Brooklyn in 2007. I graduated from Ithaca College in New York State with Bachelors in TV/Radio and have a Masters in Media Arts from Emerson College in Boston. I have a cat named Sabbath and my bald head is good luck!

	KRITHI RAO My name is Krithi and I recently moved to New York City from Boston. I went to Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts, with the hopes of becoming a high-school history teacher by day and a singer by night, but I eventually fell in love with teaching ESL when I volunteered with an immigration advocacy group in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina had devastated the region. I moved to Monterey, CA soon after undergrad, where I received an MA in TESOL. I have tutored and taught students from all over the world, and I hope to continue for a while. In my spare time, I love to sing (especially karaoke), cook Indian food, listen to music, take long walks, practice yoga, see movies, read, and watch T.V.
	ALISE ERAMIAN Hi! My name is Alise and I have been teaching ESL for the past two years in New York City.I am a native New Yorker to the CORE but have lived and studied abroad and in France. I am presently obtaining my MA in TESOL from Hunter college. I have a BS in Biology ,as well as a degree in Theater Arts, from The State University of New York at Stony Brook as well as a PASSION for music, expression, and rhythm. My belief is that theater, education, and language are powerful tools in life. As an actor and playwright I have found that drama is an effective channel in teaching and freeing my students' doubts and inhibitions. One can truly learn when they are free to take risks without fear. I try to incorporate as much creativity and activity in my class as possible in order to free my students from fear and help them discover new things.My belief is that if you're curious, then ask and learn!
