 Letter of Reference from Gary F., Ph.D. (excerpt)

"Rhonda also realizes that one of the most important dispositions a teacher can encourage in students is self-directed learning, the motivation to not just ask significant questions and pose complex problems, but also the propensity to actively seek out the resources and answers to these questions and problems on an independent basis."

Letter of Reference from Madhuri M., Boulder, CO:

I met  Rhonda in the year  2000, and hired her as an extra pair of hands to help with my three young children.  Even more important then her hands, which were endlessly organizing, cooking, cleaning and making my logistical life a possibility, was the extra heart that came along with the package.  Her fabulous vitality, enthusiasm and playful attention, was an incredible gift to my children, who flourished with a contented delight under her endless patience, love and care.  Her kindness and dedication to our family went far beyond her professional responsibilities.  Because she is so sincerely passionate about children and naturally gifted at creating a healthy, attentive, fun and fabulous home life for them, Rhonda instantly became a member of our family.  With her assistance, we attempted extravagant birthday parties and provided endless experiences for the children that I just couldn't have done without a competent yet adventurous soul willing to do just about anything.  Rhonda really loves., and dedicates herself with such compassion, wisdom, and earnest commitment, that she is a true treasure to any family.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your working with Rhonda.
