Instructor & Course
Jan BrignoniAloha! I've been teaching for 8 years. I love seeing the students grow both artistically and personally. Every year I teach so many passionate students and it's amazing to be a part of their growth and journey, no matter how small a role I might play. Many students tend to think that college isn't an option for them, whether it be because of grades or because of financial obstacles. Through early college, students begin to tear down the "wall" they created in their mind about college and start to see that they can be successful and there are other options for them. This program really starts to open their mind to possibilities and starts the conversation to where they can go.
