Institute for Gifted - University of Chicago Developed and taught Creative Writing and International Relations class for the group of gifted International students. If you are working on something that you care about, you don’t have to be pushed. The vision pulls you. This simple yet powerful quality of Integrative motivation was a backbone of Creative Writing class: Students who are most successful when learning in a new language are those who like the people that speak the language, admire the culture and have a desire to become familiar with and integrate into the society in which the language is used. International Relations class was focused on deepening international awareness and developing students ability to discuss variety of important global issues from different perspectives.

Despite obvious transformative power of the music, many students don't have music classes in school. My music engagement project goes beyond giving children opportunities to write lyrics and sing songs - it is giving them a chance for success in school, work, and life in compelling ways by pairing them with industry experts in audio recording industry.
Students developed the skills necessary to create vocal-focused recordings and developed a broad understanding of the professional music production environment by learning how to properly set up, operate, and manage a recording studio. Each student created compelling, professional-sounding songs by learning to identify the production elements that contribute to a well-balanced, artful and professional mix.
Students area also taught the most essential elements of what goes into making a music video and, by the end of the course students conceived, produced, and shot music video.
