Testimonials:
Jamie is really great at creating a super supportive and structured environment. I felt really challenged doing this kind of work, but I also felt truly supported throughout the entire process. Jamie wants us to succeed and that’s what makes her a strong teacher. Students rise to their teacher’s expectations and Jamie had high, but realistic, expectations for us and I think we all did fantastic work because of it.
