Hello! I'm Issa (EE-sa), a Teaching Artist with about 14 years of experience working with students Pre K - 12. I love teaching and seeing my students create, whether that is a pot, a painting, a pose, or something else. My classes are engaging and help kids develop their skills while having fun together. I speak Spanish and learn names quickly.
